Put the ricotta in a large bowl or electric mixer and mix in the egg yolks, followed by the flour, lemon zest and juice and finally the caster sugar. Mix until fully incorporated.

In a separate bowl mix the egg whites until really stiff and gently fold them into the ricotta mixture.

To make the base for the cake melt the butter in a small pan. Take off the heat and add in the crushed biscuits.

Spoon the mixture into a 24cm springfoam tin. Press down firmly with a spoon.

Pour the mixture over the cake and bake in the oven for 55 minutes.
