Last year it shared a post with my Ma's Qassatat ta I-Irkotta, small ricotta pies.
Just a few sentences.
Sorry.
Live and learn, right?
They're both pie recipes, have a ricotta filling and a crust.
There the similarity ends.
Ma's recipe is 100% simpler.
You can prepare it for lunch the same day.
And, it's healthier.
Watching your cholesterol?
No problem.
