Main Ingredients

2 cups Swiss chard

1 cup Ricotta cheese

1 cup 00 bread flour

1 tbs Parmesan cheese, grated

1 tsp Celtic sea salt

1 tsp black pepper

1 cup Sweet corn, fresh or frozen

1 cup Chanterelle mushrooms

1 cup Heirloom cherry tomatoes, halved

1 tbs Pecorino Romano cheese, grated

2 tbs olive oil

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Swiss Chard

Wash the Swiss chard thoroughly, then chop it finely. In a skillet, sauté the Swiss chard in a bit of olive oil until wilted. Allow to cool slightly.

2

Make the Gnudi Mixture

In a bowl, combine the sautéed Swiss chard, ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan, flour, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. The mixture should be soft but hold its shape.

3

Shape the Gnudi

Using floured hands, form the mixture into small dumplings (about the size of a golf ball). Place them on a floured baking sheet.

4

Cook the Gnudi

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Gently drop the gnudi into the boiling water, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.

5

Prepare the Sauce

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chanterelle mushrooms and sauté until golden. Add the sweet corn and cherry tomatoes, cooking until heated through.

6

Serve

Plate the gnudi and top with the sautéed corn, mushrooms, and tomatoes. Finish with a sprinkle of Pecorino Romano cheese.
