Russian Easter dessert: Paskha.
Ingredients:
  • 300g ricotta cheese
  • 250g mascarpone
  • 100g caster sugar
  • 4.40 gm vanilla extract
  • 75ml double cream
  • 50g toasted almonds, finely chopped
  • 50g good-quality chocolate, finely chopped
  • 125g glace fruits, finely chopped (such as apricots, cherries and peaches)
Instructions:
  • Place a doubled layer of muslin in the pots, ensuring some hangs over the edges.
  • Combine the ricotta, mascarpone, caster sugar, and vanilla in a food processor until creamy. Empty the mixture into a bowl.
  • Whip the cream until light, then gently mix it into the cheese mixture along with almonds, chocolate, and fruit. Spoon the mixture into the pots, fold the excess cloth over the top, cover with a saucer, place a weight on top, and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove the saucer and weight from the paskha, unfold the cloth, invert pots onto a serving plate, peel off the muslin, and serve with the baked figs (see related recipe).
