Ingredients
- 4 slices of sourdough or your favourite bread
- 1 cup fresh ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Exotic Bazaar’s Dukkah
Instructions
-
Toast the Bread: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) or use a toaster. Place the slices of sourdough on a baking tray and toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy. If you’re using a toaster, simply toast until crispy.
-
Prepare the Ricotta: While the bread is toasting, spoon the ricotta cheese into a small bowl. If you like, you can give it a gentle mix to make it extra creamy.
-
Assemble the Toast: Once the bread is toasted, spread a generous layer of ricotta cheese on each slice.
-
Add the Honey: Drizzle honey over the ricotta-covered toast. You can adjust the amount of honey to your taste, but a light drizzle works best for balancing the flavours.
-
Sprinkle the Dukkah: Evenly sprinkle Exotic Bazaar’s dukkah over the honey-drizzled ricotta. The dukkah adds a delightful crunch and a burst of flavour with its blend of nuts and spices.
-
Garnish and Serve: If you’re feeling fancy, garnish with a few sprigs of fresh thyme or mint for a pop of colour and extra freshness. Add a pinch of sea salt if you like a touch of contrast to the sweetness.
-
Enjoy: Serve immediately while the toast is still warm and the ricotta is creamy. This dish pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee or a refreshing herbal tea.
