Gnudi All' Acqua Al 2: Naked Ravioli image

Provided by Food Network

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large bunch raw spinach, washed, dried, trimmed and chopped
5 tablespoons/74 ml extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for smearing hands
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 pound/450 g fresh ricotta cheese
4 tablespoons/57 g freshly grated Parmigiano cheese, plus extra for sprinkling
Salt
All-purpose flour, if needed
20 cherry tomatoes, halved
4 to 8 fresh basil leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to about 400 degrees F. Saute the spinach with 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 the quantity of the garlic for a few minutes until soft. Let cool. Then in a bowl, combine the spinach, ricotta, Parmigiano and salt to taste. Add a small amount of flour, a little at a time, only if ricotta is filled with too much moisture. Combine the mixture thoroughly.
  • Smear some olive oil on your hands. Scoop mixture, in the amount of an egg, onto the palm of your hands and form into a compact ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  • In a saucepan, heat up the remaining olive oil, then add the remaining garlic, cherry tomatoes and basil and cook for approximately 5 minutes. Spoon half the sauce into a baking dish, then add the "gnudi" balls and top with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with Parmigiano cheese and bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gnudi turned out really dense. Maybe I used too much flour?

These gnudi were a little bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to the ricotta filling.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The gnudi are so light and fluffy, and the sage butter sauce is the perfect finishing touch.

I added some chopped spinach to the ricotta filling and it was a great addition. The gnudi were also really good with a tomato sauce.

These were so easy to make and so delicious! I used a store-bought ricotta and they still turned out great.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my gnudi turned out gummy. Not sure what went wrong.

Not bad for a first attempt! The gnudi were a bit dense, but the flavor was still good. I'll try again with a different ricotta next time.

Amazingly light and pillowy gnudi! I used homemade ricotta and added a generous amount of fresh herbs from my garden. The sage butter sauce was the perfect finishing touch.
