Gnudi

Method

Prepare the Gnudi

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  2. 2

    Shape the Gnudi

    Dust a clean surface with flour and turn the dough out. Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into a ball, then flatten slightly into a disc shape.

  3. 3

    Chill the Gnudi

    Place the shaped gnudi on a floured baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Cook the Chanterelles & Peas

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 5

    Add Chanterelles and Peas

    Add the sliced chanterelle mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften. Then add the green peas and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook the Gnudi

  1. 6

    Boil the Gnudi

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the gnudi into the boiling water and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface.

  2. 7

    Combine

    Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked gnudi to the skillet with the chanterelles and peas. Toss gently to combine and heat through.

  3. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your ricotta gnudi with chanterelles and peas!
