Preheat the oven to 200oC/gas mark 6. Grease and line a 38 x 25cm baking tray. Spread the mixture onto the tray, top with the parmesan and cook for 15 minutes until springy and risen. Turn out onto a piece of greaseproof paper, carefully remove the lining paper and leave to cool.

To make the filling, season the ricotta and spread some on the cooled roulade base, leaving a gap at each end, then sprinkle on the goat’s cheese, basil and tomatoes. Roll the roulade up from one long side, then wrap in greaseproof paper and foil and chill overnight.

When ready to serve, preheat the oven to 200oC/gas mark 6. Slice the roulade allowing two wedges per person, and heat in the oven for about 10 minutes. Finish off under a hot grill to crisp slightly then transfer to a serving plate with some watercress.~)V4\#]0\

Meanwhile, make the beetroot caviar. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the shallots, garlic and lime leaves until soft, then add the beetroots and warm through. Put into a food processor and pulse until broken down but still a little chunky. Serve with the roulade.
