Method:

Bring the milk and water to the boil, add the semolina and boil briefly until thickened. Allow the thick semolina porridge to cool a little. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with the cane sugar to a thick white foam, add the cocoa, finely grated orange peel (which should be thoroughly cleaned beforehand) and stir the foam gently. Gradually stir in the ricotta and partially cooled semolina porridge – the batter should be smooth. Finally, stir in the chopped chocolate.
