The easiest summer starter or main course for four. Melon has a lovely depth of flavour in season. Make sure you serve it at room temperature – if it’s been in the fridge you won’t get the full effect. The mint dressing goes well with the sweet fruit and salty ham.

Cut the melon into wedges, scoop out any seeds and then slice off the skin. Lay the melon slices out on a platter. Tear the mozzarella into pieces and dot these over the melon. Whisk the dressing ingredients and drizzle over the dish. Serve with Parma ham and grissini for a main course or on its own as a starter.
