Introduction
Ricotta (not potato) based gnocchi--super easy! Ricotta (not potato) based gnocchi--super easy!Number of Servings: 1
Ingredients
-
10 oz. whole milk ricotta
1 large egg
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
1 1/2 cups flour
Tips
Some sauce ideas: Lightly sauté in garlic butter and top with parmesan cheese or sauté in your favorite tomato-based sauce and top with basil.
Directions
Mix ricotta, egg, salt, and pepper together until incorporated.
Gradually add 1 1/4 cups of flour (do this in 2-3 batches, mixing each one in before adding more). Dough will be a little sticky.
Use the last 1/4 cup flour on the counter to knead the dough in. By the end, the dough should be less sticky and soft. You might need a little more flour than what is listed here.
Put a large pot of water on the stove top on high (to bring to a boil while you do this next part).
Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. One by one, roll a piece of dough into a rope about 3/4" thick and cut it into 1" pieces. If desired, roll each piece of dough on the back of a fork to give it a ridged texture.
Drop gnocchi pieces into a vigorously boiling pot of water. They will rise to the surface of the water as they boil--takes about 1 minute or so. Drain them into a colander or remove them from the water with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander (if boiling them in batches).
Top with your favorite sauce.
