Method

  1. To make the hot honey, put the honey, chilli flakes and vinegar into a small pan, stir well and heat gently for 5 mins. Remove from the heat.
  2. Combine the ricotta, lemon zest, nutmeg and some seasoning in a small bowl.
  3. Warm a griddle or frying pan on a high heat. Brush the bread slices all over with the oil and toast for 3-4 mins each side until golden and charred.
  4. Spread the ricotta mixture over the toast, top with the roasted pumpkin or butternut squash and generously drizzle over the hot honey. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and sage leaves, if you like, plus a squeeze of lemon juice.
