2 tablespoon olive oil

2 clove garlic, crushed

1/3 cup chopped flatleaf parsley

Method

1.Cook pasta in boiling salted water 12 minutes, or until tender but firm to the bite. Drain; rinse under cold water. Transfer pasta to a large bowl; add tomato.

2.Meanwhile, combine zest, juice, oil and garlic in a screw-top jar; shake well to combine.

3.Pour dressing over pasta mixture. Add parsley; stir until combined. Add ricotta; season with salt and pepper.
