Remove stalk, peel and slice persimmons into thin pieces.
Divide the salad leaf and persimmon between 4 plates.
Top with parmesan shavings, toasted almonds and drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
Note: This salad makes a great accompaniment to any grilled or barbequed meats. Can be served as a light meal or entree. Add some cooked prawns for a simple variation.
