Spice it up easily, and yes, reduce the flour
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I make dishes similar to this all the time for my family. I add a few pinches of nutmeg and a shake of red pepper flakes (or... a dash of cayenne). And unless the idea is to make a sort of poor man's gnocchi with the flour in this recipe, all you should need is two tablespoons maximum as a binder for the ricotta-spinach-parmesan balls.Read more

Too much flour, too bland
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I tried this recipe for lunch. I carefully measured all the ingredients, but the finished dish tasted like there was too... much flour, and it really could have used some more flavor.Read more

Good

In answer to the other viewer, Strozzapreti can be used as a side OR entree. There's enough protein to say it can be an... entree. It just depends what you're serving with it. Leftovers? Serve in/on an Italian flatbread as a sandwich.Read more

Really good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I did not see the broadcast, so I don't know if was a side or main dish. I quite liked it and used a garlicky tomato sauce,... which I think made it a bit nicer.Read more
