Baked Ricotta


Sometimes you are invited out on short notice and wonder what to take with you to share that is quick simple and delicious? I made this baked ricotta and rushed out the door ricotta and crusty bread in hand without taking a photo of it after it was baked.
Take a wedge of fresh ricotta cheese and place in an oven proof dish. Finely chop your herbs of choice, I used lemon and common thyme, rosemary, parsley, oregano and marjoram. Sprinkle over the ricotta along with lemon zest, chili flakes and freshly ground salt and pepper. Drizzle with good quality olive oil and bake in a moderate oven for around 20 minutes.
Enjoy with crusty bread, a nice glass of wine of your choice and good company.
