Ingredients:

4 cups edamame
600g
3 slices prosciutto
50g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 tbsp soy sauce
16g
2 tbsp peanut oil
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Edamame:
- If using frozen edamame, cook according to package instructions. Typically, boil in salted water for about 3-5 minutes until tender. Drain well and set aside to cool.
- If using fresh edamame, boil in a pot of salted water for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Drain well and set aside to cool.
2. Crisp the Prosciutto:
- Preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Place the prosciutto slices in the pan in a single layer.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they become crispy.
- Remove from the pan and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Once cool, crumble into bite-sized pieces.
3. Make the Garlic Dressing:
- Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
- Heat the peanut oil in the same frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the chopped garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden, being careful not to burn it.
- Remove the pan from heat and stir in the soy sauce.
4. Assemble the Salad:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared edamame beans, crumbled crispy prosciutto, and the garlic dressing.
- Toss well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
5. Serve:
- Transfer the salad to a serving dish.
- Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

- Use fresh or frozen edamame beans; if using frozen, make sure to thaw them before use.

- For added flavor, lightly toast the prosciutto in a pan before adding it to the salad.

- Feel free to customize the salad with other ingredients such as cherry tomatoes, cucumber, or nuts.
