Step 3

3. Lay a piece of cling film on a working surface. Pipe 4 lines of the ricotta mixture about 8-10cm long in the middle of the cling film. Build up the edges to form a trough.

Step 5

Pipe two lines of ricotta mixture on top to completely cover the passion fruit curd.

Step 6

5. Wrap the ricotta ‘log’ tightly with cling film to form an oval shape. Place it in the freezer for at least 3 hours or overnight.

Step 7

6. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 10-second bursts, stirring after each interval. Add the oil and mix well.
