When garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze garlic cloves from skins, then roughly chop.

Step 6

Add garlic, ricotta, HALF the mozzarella, lemon zest, and truffle salt to a medium bowl. Mix well.

Step 7

Lightly oil a medium, oven-safe skillet (or pie pan), then add ricotta mixture. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
