Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 5, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the pumpkin wedges on a baking tray, drizzle over the olive oil, season and toss to coat. Roast for 1 hr until golden.
- Meanwhile, put the ricotta in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Add most of the grated pecorino to the ricotta, with the lemon juice and zest. Season; whisk again. Set aside.
- Pour the honey into a saucepan with a pinch of salt and crushed chillies. Warm for 5 mins. Spread the ricotta mix over a plate, top with the wedges and drizzle with 3 tbsp of hot honey (pour the rest back into the jar and keep for up to 1 month).
- Scatter with the leftover pecorino, chopped hazelnuts and chopped parsley.
