Method
- Heat the oven to 170°C/fan150°C/gas 3½. Toss the spring onions in a bowl with 1 tbsp of the olive oil, lay out on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes or until golden and soft. Leave to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, put the potatoes into a pan of water, bring to the boil, then cook for around 15 minutes or until tender. Drain, then leave to steam dry and cool slightly in the pan.
- While the potatoes are cooking, put the sherry in a small pan with the honey and simmer until reduced by two thirds. Stir through the mustard, then drizzle in the rest of the oil, whisking with a fork until emulsified (thickened). Taste, season.
- Toss the spring onions with the potatoes, rocket and basil, then stir through the dressing. Transfer to a serving platter, scatter over the strips of ham and serve.
