1 ½ cups whole milk ricotta
1/3 cup Parmigiano Reggiano, finely grated
Zest of 1 lemon

Directions:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Meanwhile, add the ricotta to a blender and blend until glossy and smooth.
Cut the lemons in half and grill them on a grill pan over high heat. Set aside. You can also cut a few slices of lemon to grill and use as garnish.

Toss on medium heat until the pasta is fully coated in the sauce. Add more pasta water as needed, 1/4 cup at a time.
Stir in the lemon zest, grilled lemon juice and Parmigiano. Toss again until combined. Add more lemon to taste and pasta water as needed.
Plate and top with lemon zest and basil.
