Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180ºC fan/200ºC/gas 6. Cook the rice in the microwave, then fluff it up and leave to cool. Dice the sweet potato into 1cm cubes, toss with 1 tsp olive oil, then roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
  2. Once the rice has cooled, stir through the chopped herbs, then season and divide between 2 bowls, making an even layer in each. Carefully cut the burrata in half horizontally and place a half on the rice in the centre of each bowl, then arrange the sweet potato, Parma Ham, avocado, sun-dried tomatoes and olives around the edge. To finish, season the burrata with salt and black pepper, then drizzle with the oil and balsamic glaze.
