Cut the Yubari Melon in half, remove the seeds with a spoon and hollow out the flesh into a ball. Also prepare slices with skin for decoration.

Step 2

Make the pancakes. Mix the eggs, sugar, cheese powder and yoghurt in a bowl with a whisk, add the sieved flour and baking powder and mix gently with a rubber spatula.

Step 3

Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add the butter and melt, drop in the batter and cook over a low heat. When browned, turn the dough over, close the lid and let it steam for 1 minute. If desired, bake another slice in the same way.

Make the sour whip. Put the sour cream and sugar in a bowl and knead with a rubber spatula, then mix with a whisk, adding the cream a little at a time. Beat with a hand mixer to one eye.

Place the pancakes on a plate and garnish with (4), (1) and the ham. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and coarsely ground black pepper.
