Crostata (Doolsho Malmalaaddo) recipe


This recipe has its origins in Bardera, Somalia. There, a Somali cook trained by Italians used to prepare a ricotta crostata using a delicious, buttery dough. This dough is great with many different types of fillings: jams, ricotta, fresh fruits, custard, etc. This lovely recipe I founded at A&L site
