Ricotta with Berries and Lime Sugar
Photography by Nick Tresidder.
Serves: 4-6
INGREDIENTS
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
finely grated zest 1 large lime
assorted fresh berries
3 tablespoons good quality grappa, Vin Santo, limoncello or dessert wine
250 grams firm ricotta* we used a whole ricotta from Clevedon Valley Buffalo Company
jug of pouring cream
METHOD
Put the sugar and lime zest in a bowl and rub together with your fingertips to infuse the sugar with the lime oil. It will turn a beautiful shade of green.
Arrange the berries on a large platter and pour over the grappa, turning to combine. Sprinkle generously with the lime sugar. Place the ricotta alongside and serve with a jug of pouring cream.
* The ricotta is also delicious drizzled with honey and served with fresh figs when in season.

Issue 115 is packed with inspiration for all kinds of cosy meals – whether you’re dining alone, as two or with a few. We start with our Plating Game interview with Jesse Mulligan which inspired a medley of curries and sides then move on to a round up of easy one-pan chicken dishes, a variety of pasta bakes and meatballs, and using one simple yet delicious tart base we whip up five fab filling options. Sarah’s wintry faves include a moreish chorizo (not) carbonara, lamb and spinach filo pie and we finish off with sweet treats and decadent puds. We love seeing what you create, don’t forget to share your dish dishes with our Facebook community. When it comes to winter cooking, make it SIMPLY YUM!
