Melon, Fried Mortadella& Burrata Skewers

Gather all ingredients and place them on a clean work surface.

Lay out the mortadella slices, watermelon cubes, and burrata pieces within easy reach.

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 10 minutes to prevent burning.

Thread each skewer in the following order: one mortadella slice, one watermelon cube, and a small piece of burrata. Press gently so the items stay together.

Heat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, swirling to coat the surface.

When the oil shimmers (about 30 seconds), add the assembled skewers, spacing them evenly in the pan.

Fry the mortadella side for 1–2 minutes until it turns lightly crisp and golden; turn the skewer to briefly sear the opposite side for another 30 seconds to warm the watermelon and burrata.

Remove the skewers from the pan and place them on a paper‑towel‑lined plate to drain excess oil.

Season each skewer with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper while still warm.

Arrange the skewers on a serving platter and serve immediately, allowing guests to enjoy the contrast of warm mortadella with cool melon and creamy burrata.

Optional: drizzle a few drops of extra‑virgin olive oil or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the skewers for added brightness.
