320 g Speck Alto Adige PGI, finely sliced 
A few handfuls of fresh rocket lettuce
Grana Padano cheese, flaked
Balsamic vinegar

For the rye wafers
210 ml water
60 ml extra virgin olive oil

Mix the water, olive oil and rye flour in a bowl and blend to a smooth batter with a hand blender. Pre-heat a non-stick frying pan, ladle in a little batter and cook on moderate to high heat until it firms up into a wafer and loosens from the pan. Turn over and continue cooking until crispy. Remove the wafer and leave to cool on a wire rack.  

Arrange the Speck Alto Adige PGI on a plate and top with the rocket lettuce and flakes of grana cheese. Dress with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and serve with the rye wafers.
