- Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. Toast the pecans for 5 mins, then set aside. When cool enough to handle, roughly chop.
- Place the garlic clove, herbs and olive oil in a small saucepan and heat gently for 2-3 mins until fragrant. Do not boil. Set aside to infuse.
- Using a hand whisk, whisk the ricotta in a bowl along with some seasoning. Spread it out on a serving plate.
- Top with the fig wedges, olives and arrange the Parma ham on top. Drizzle over the herby oil and sprinkle over the pecans and serve immediately with baguette slices and crisps.
