Gnocchi di spinaci e ricotta

1 rating

A classic of Italian cooking, spinach and ricotta gnocchi bear scant resemblance to the better-known potato gnocchi. Lighter and prettier and easier to make, they have a fabulous flavour and pretensions to healthiness, what with all that spinach.

Ingredients

  • 500g/1lb 2oz frozen spinach, thawed, or 650g/1lb 7oz fresh spinach, cooked until wilting
  • 250g/9oz ricotta cheese
  • 100²µ/3½´Ç³ú parmesan, or similar vegetarian hard cheese, freshly grated
  • 150g/5oz plain flour, plus extra for flouring

  • freshly grated nutmeg
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
