350 g Val Venosta cherries

Preparation
For the ricotta cheese pancake with cherries, separate the yolks from the egg whites. Beat egg whites with salt until stiff. Put aside. Beat the egg yolks with sugar until creamy, add ricotta cheese and milk and work with the whisk. Add flour and continue to work with the whisk until you get a homogeneous batter. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites. Put aside.
Wash, pit and halve the cherries. Heat a large pan with oil and butter. When the butter begins to sizzle, add cherries and sauté them in butter for about a minute. Distribute the cherries evenly on the bottom and cover with the batter. Level the batter and cover with a lid. Cook over low heat for approx. 10 minutes, until one side is golden brown. Use a spatula to cut the pancake into 4 wedges and gently turn them one after the other. Cover again with a lid and finish cooking for another 6-8 minutes. The cooking time also depends on the size of the pan.
Once cooked on both sides, cut your pancake into many irregular pieces with the help of two forks or a spoon and a spatula. Serve your ricotta cheese pancake with cherries hot with a good sprinkling of powdered sugar.
