Ricotta gnudi with pine nuts, currants and oregano

Cooking Vegetarian Ricotta gnudi with pine nuts, currants and oregano

These light, fluffy versions of gnocchi are made with ricotta instead of potato.

  1. Mix cheeses, flour, semolina, egg, nutmeg and 1 teaspoon salt together with a fork, then shape into 28 walnut-sized dumplings. Place on a baking tray in a single layer, then chill, uncovered, for at least 1 hour.
  2. Bring a saucepan of salted water to a rapid simmer over medium-high heat. In batches, cook gnudi for 3-4 minutes until they rise to the surface. Remove using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.
  3. Melt butter in a frypan over medium- high heat until just starting to brown. Add oregano and sizzle for 20 seconds. Drain currants, then add to the pan and season.
  4. Divide gnudi among bowls and spoon over the oregano sauce. Serve with pine nuts and extra parmesan.
