Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, freshly grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, ricotta cheese, egg yolk, Parmesan cheese, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is sticky, add more flour one tablespoon at a time until it is manageable.
Step 2
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until smooth.
Step 3
Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a long rope, about 1/2 inch in diameter.
Step 4
Using a knife, cut each rope into 1-inch pieces. To create the classic gnocchi shape, roll each piece off the back of a fork to create ridges.
Step 5
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot. Boil until the gnocchi float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Step 6
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 7
Pour in the heavy cream and let it simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Step 8
Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet, gently tossing to coat them in the cream sauce.
Step 9
Season the sauce with freshly grated nutmeg, black pepper, and additional salt to taste.
Step 10
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve the gnocchi warm.
