1 Video | Photo: Gnudi Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1 pound frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus 1 cup for coating
- 1 jar store bought marinara sauce, heated
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
In a large bowl, mix ricotta, spinach, Parmesan cheese, eggs, and yolks. Stir in nutmeg, salt, pepper, and flour. Form mixture in to small, flattened balls.
Dredge the formed gnudi in flour to coat, tapping off the excess. Slide formed gnudi into the boiling water. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; work in batches if necessary. Remove the gnudi using a slotted spoon after they float to the top and have cooked for about 4 minutes.
Arrange gnudi on a platter and lightly drizzle with marinara sauce.

I love these little pillows. They totally replace pasta for me when I'm watching the carbs.

I really love this dish. It's so fast and easy to make. As long as you thoroughly coat the dumplings with the flour and lower them in with a ladle, you will have no issues with them falling apart. Also make sure the water is at a lower, rolling boil; not an intense one going up the sides of the pot.
I also found it makes a good topping for crunchy bread or bagel chips is you want to serve it with that.
