Cooking Tips:

- For a deeper flavor, marinate the pork fillets in the olive oil, rosemary, and garlic mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.

- Monitor the prosciutto closely while cooking, as it can easily become over-crisp and lose its delicate flavor.

- Use high-quality balsamic vinegar for the dressing to enhance the overall taste of the dish.

- Serve the dish with a side of steamed greens or a fresh salad to balance the richness of the pork and potatoes.
