Gnocchetti Di Spinaci (Spinach Gnocchi)
- 200 grams Spinach
- 200 grams Fresh ricotta
- 2 Eggs
- 1.5 tablespoons Salt, plus a big pinch
- Nutmeg
- Flour
- Butter
- Parmigiano-Reggiano
- Bring a pot of water to boil with just enough water to cover the spinach. In the meantime, clean and trim the spinach. Cook spinach in boiling water for just a few minutes. Remove spinach from water and allow to cool down. Then squeeze out all excess liquid.
- Bring a larger pot of water to boil. Once at a boil, add 1.5 tablespoons salt to the water.
- Mix spinach, ricotta, eggs, a big pinch of salt, and a dash of freshly grated nutmeg all together in bowl. Adjust the salt and nutmeg to taste.
- Form the mixture into small flattened balls. About two inches long. Lightly roll the gnocchetti in flour to get a nice coating.
- Drop the gnocchetti in the boiling water, working in batches as not to over crowd them. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
- Mix all together with a big slice of good butter and top with freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano! Enjoy!
