Preparation steps

1.
Heat the oven to 220C (200C fan) 425F, gas 7.

Rinse the zucchini flowers very carefully and pat dry with kitchen paper.
3.
Mix the ricotta with the breadcrumbs, nutmeg, beaten eggs and Parmesan and season with salt and pepper.
4.
Stuff the ricotta mixture into the middle of the zucchini flowers, gently twisting the petals to ensure the stuffing doesn't fall out.
