Figs and parma ham tartlets, summer recipe – light & yummy

Figs and parma ham tartlets

These mouth watering figs and parma ham tartlets really bring together foods which are very different to each other. There is the contrast of the sweet figs against the salty parma ham. Then the softness of the fruit as opposed to the crunchiness of the phyllo shells. Yet they are so incredibly nice for a light antipasto or snack!

Often parma ham is combined with melon: who loves Italian food is surely familiar with the starter “prosciutto e melone”. But less people know that also figs are very nice with parma ham, in fact I like this combination even more! I also wanted to add some sort of carbohydrate to this recipe, for completeness. Therefore I thought to use a basic recipe I just wrote recently, and combine figs and parma ham into Phyllo shells:

Phyllo shells are very low in points/calories and very versatile with sweet or savoury fillings. Perfect for this recipe!
