Ricotta with Eggplant, Olives & Tomato Recipe

I’m yet to find a way that eggplant doesn’t impress me. It is such a wonderfully ‘meaty’ vegetable without the meat component, of course. For me this makes it a wholesome vegetarian starter particularly when teamed with the scrumptious flavours of tomato, basil and pistachios and the creaminess of ricotta.
Serves: 4 as starter
