Instructions
To make the Christmas spiced dressing:
Place all the ingredients in a small saucepan over a low heat. Cook for around 5-10 minutes, or until the dressing has reduced and some syrup-like. Remove from the heat.
To assemble:
Arrange the salad ingredients on a serving platter. Just before serving, pour over some Christmas spiced dressing (to taste) and create a small hole in opposing sides of the burrata so that the cream oozes out. Season and serve immediately.
