20.00 ml finely chopped chives
Salt and black pepper
2 pears
8 slices prosciutto, halved lengthways

Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line an 18cm cake tin or ovenproof dish with baking paper. In a large bowl, combine ricotta with egg, parsley, and chives. Season generously with salt and black pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared tin and press down firmly using the back of a spoon. Bake for 1 hour until golden. Allow it to cool in the pan before turning it out onto a serving platter.
