This vibrant pea and prosciutto salad is a celebration of seasonal flavours and textures. Combining sweet, blanched garden peas and crunchy sugar snap peas with peppery rocket, it offers a sophisticated balance that feels both light and indentulgent. The citrusy Dijon vinaigrette cuts through the richness of the cured meat, creating a fresh, dairy-free dish that works beautifully as a dinner party starter or a standalone weekend lunch.
Adding a touch of freshly grated horseradish provides a sharp, earthy heat that elevates the vegetables without overpowering them. This recipe is naturally healthy and takes advantage of fresh produce, though high-quality frozen peas make a brilliant year-round substitute. Serve it on a large platter in the centre of the table for a rustic yet elegant presentation that highlights the contrasting greens and delicate prosciutto.

Ingredients for Pea and Prosciutto Salad
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
300ml shelled fresh green peas (from about 575g pods), or frozen peas, thawed
350g sugar snap peas (about 3 cups), trimmed
110g rocket, tough stems removed (about 6 packed cups)
110g prosciutto, thinly sliced
Knob of fresh horseradish, peeled (for serving)
How to make Pea and Prosciutto Salad
Whisk lemon juice and mustard in a large bowl. Gradually add oil, whisking constantly until emulsified; season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
Working in batches, cook green peas and sugar snap peas in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes per batch. Immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water and swoosh peas around until cold; this sets their colour and halts the cooking. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
Add green peas, sugar snap peas, and rocket to bowl with vinaigrette and toss until well coated with dressing; season with salt and pepper.
Arrange salad on a platter and top with prosciutto. Finely grate horseradish over salad to your liking.
