Ricotta mayonnaise

My daughter Meg invented this dressing, which tastes very much like mayonnaise but contains only a fraction of the calories. You can vary the flavour by adding ? teaspoon of Dijon mustard and you can also add a little skimmed milk if you want a thinner consistency.

SERVES 6–8

2 tbsp natural yoghurt

125g (4oz) ricotta

2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil

? tsp red wine vinegar

salt and freshly ground black pepper

Simply mix everything together to a smooth cream.
