no exception but the use of the light ricotta cheese gives
it an unexpected delicacy. Serves warm or cold.

This is an Arabic influenced version of the Italian dish,
Bruschetta. It is eaten as a snack or as a first course in
a rustic meal. It is very moorish and although simple, surprisingly
satisfying.
