Ingredients

250g Ricotta
1 tbsp lemon zest
400g rhubarb (trimmed & cut into 5cm pieces)
200g strawberries ( sliced thinly)
100g caster sugar
1 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
2 sheets puff pastry (with butter)
1 egg yolk ( lightly beaten)
1 tbsp raw sugar

Preparation

1 Combine ricotta and lemon zest in a bowl and set aside.
2 In a separate bowl, combine rhubarb, strawberries, caster sugar, flour and vanilla essence and set aside.
3 Cut out a 24cm-diameter round from each sheet of shortcrust pastry, to make 2 large round circles. Place each circle on a separate baking tray lined with baking paper. Leaving a 4cm border, firstly spread the ricotta mixture then top with the rhubarb mixture.
4 Fold in border, brush with beaten egg, then sprinkle with a raw sugar.
5 Bake at 180C until dark-golden and crisp (30-35 minutes). Serve warm with our Mascarpone or vanilla ice-cream.
