Carefully pour the mixture into a sieve lined with a cheesecloth, place the sieve over a bowl, cover and leave to drain in the fridge for approx. 8 hrs. or overnight.

Asparagus

Blanch the asparagus in boiling salted water for approx. 5 mins., drain, cool immediately in ice-cold water. Remove, drain well.

Serve

Stir the ricotta with the honey until smooth, season. Transfer the ricotta cream to a platter, top with the asparagus. Combine the lemon juice and oil, drizzle over the asparagus and ricotta. Top with the lemon zest, flaked almonds and basil.
