Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C.
Step 2
Place a sheet of baking paper over the base of a spring-form pan, letting it overhang the bottom a little, before re-attaching the ring (this makes it so much easier to slide the baked cake onto a serving plate).
Step 3
Put the ricotta, feta, eggs, and garlic into a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer til smooth.
Step 4
Stir in the pepper and chopped basil and oregano and spread mixture into the pan.
Step 5
Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top; lay the cherry tomato's cut size up.
Step 6
Bake cake for one hour or til set and golden brown on top.
Step 7
Allow the cake to cool then refrigerate for at least an hour or til firm.
Step 8
Remove the sides of the pan & slide the tart cake off and slice to serve with a few basil leaves on top of each slice.
