Ingredients

4 persons

  • 1600 gram focaccia
  • 12 tablespoons ELVEA green pesto
  • 12 tablespoons ELVEA red pesto
  • 32 pieces of green asparagus tips
  • 16 tablespoons ricotta
  • 4 handfuls of fresh basil
  • 4 lemons, the zest
  • 4 balls of burrata
  • 16 slices of Parma ham
  • 4 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
  • black pepper

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Cut the focaccia horizontally in half so you get two large halves.

  2. 2

    Spread one half with the ELVEA green pesto and the other half with the ELVEA red pesto. Distribute the asparagus tips over the green half.

  3. 3

    Bake both halves in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes until the focaccia is crispy and the asparagus is just tender.

  4. 4

    Finish the green half with dots of ricotta, fresh basil, lemon zest, a few drops of extra virgin olive oil, and black pepper.

  5. 5

    Top the red half with burrata, Parma ham, toasted pine nuts, and black pepper. Cut both focaccia halves into bite-sized pieces.

    Buon appetito!
