Woman stands in the kitchen wearing an apron and is lifting the lid of the pan. You can see sliced tomatoes lying on the worktop.

It's the combination that makes the difference!

In this mozzarella recipe, the passion fruit harmonises perfectly with the underlying nuts. The nuts help to ensure that the fruit is not too overpowering. Add to this the mild flavour of the mozzarella ball and we have an ideal combination that not only tastes good, but is also super easy to work with. The protinella ball can also be used for an extra protein kick!

Preparation

  1. To make the dressing, place the ingredients in a blender jug and blend with a hand blender until smooth. Season the dressing again with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Clean and wash the salad.
  3. Tear the mozzarella balls or protinella balls into wedges. This creates smaller fibres that absorb the dressing better.
  4. Then place in a bowl and marinate with the dressing and almonds.
  5. Leave the marinated mozzarella or protinella to marinate for 10 minutes and place around the salad. Pour the rest of the dressing over the salad.
