Lightly toast the nuts in a frying pan, then cool and roughly chop. Put the ricotta, nuts, garlic, lemon zest, parmesan, olive oil and oregano (or basil) into a food processor and blitz to a paste using the pulse button. Season. If your food processor is too big or you don’t want the washing up, use a pestle and mortar.
Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Put the tomatoes in a roasting tin in a single layer. Add all the other ingredients, then turn everything over with your hands. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the tomatoes are a little shrunken and scorched in patches.
Put the slices of ciabatta onto a baking sheet and, when the tomatoes have cooked, toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes. You don’t have to turn the slices over, but you might have to turn the baking sheet around to ensure even toasting. Leave to cool a little. Spread the toasts generously with the white pesto. Cut the tomatoes into little sprigs – or pull them off their stems – and put on top of the toasts, spooning over any juices.
If you can’t find fresh oregano, use basil instead and put small sprigs on top.
