Ingredients
  

For the Eyeballs
  • 16 small mozzarella balls also called bocconcini
  • 8 slices prosciutto cut in half lengthwise
  • 8 pimento stuffed green olives cut in half
To Serve (Optional)
  • good quality olive oil
  • balsamic glaze
  • flaky sea salt
  • fresh basil leaves

Equipment

  • Small paring knife

Method
 

  1. Prepare your ingredients by cutting the olives in half and cutting each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise.
  2. Drain the mozzarella balls. Use a small paring knife to cut a small piece out of the top of each cheese ball, just enough to fit an olive half.
  3. Carefully wrap a slice of prosciutto around each mozzarella ball, cut side up. Fold back the top of the prosciutto to secure it.
  4. Place half an olive into the center of each mozzarella ball.
  5. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic glaze, and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. You can place each eyeball on a basil leaf before serving if desired.
  6. Enjoy!
