“These ricotta gnocchi have been a signature dish at Fabbrica since opening. Using ricotta instead of potato makes the gnocchi feather-light and gives a delicious mild flavour. The lemon zest adds a unique brightness to the dish. I love serving with homemade tomato sauce with dollops of fresh burrata on top that melt on contact. Because the gnocchi are lighter, this dish is a go-to comfort recipe all year round.“
Ingredients
Instructions
- StepPlace ricotta cheese in a strainer with a cheese cloth or a clean kitchen towel and let it drain in the fridge for 2 hours.
- StepOnce ready, mix together all of the ingredients with the ricotta cheese, except for the flour. Be sure to mix until everything is completely incorporated.
- StepOnce mixed, add the flour just until fully incorporated, being sure not to over work the dough.
- StepAllow the dough to rest for two hours.
- StepWhen ready, roll the dough into 1/2-inch thick ropes on a floured surface and cut into 1-inch pieces. Be sure to have extra flour ready, as the dough will be a little wet and will require a bit of extra flour.
- StepBlanch the gnocchi in boiling salted water. Once the gnocchi are floating, remove them from the water and place them on a tray lined with parchment.
- StepOil the gnocchi and separate them. Place the tray in the fridge to cool.
- StepRe-heat and serve in your favourite sauce when ready.
