Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (plus extra reserved for garnishing)
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon lemon zest (use a microplane grater, plus extra reserved for garnishing)
1 teaspoon kosher salt (or 1/2 tsp table salt)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
1 tablespoon chopped parsley (plus extra reserved for garnishing)
1/2 teaspoon finely minced fresh chili pepper (or red pepper flakes)
2 tablespoons clarified butter (or just regular butter, but the clarified butter works much better)
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine ricotta, parmagiano, yolk, zest and salt in large bowl. Mix well. Sprinkle half of the flour on the mixture, gently turn with spatula a few times to incorporate. Dump mixture on clean, lightly floured countertop. Sprinkle remaining flour on top of the mixture. Gently knead with your fingertips, just bringing together the mixture until flour is incorporated through. This only should take a minute or two. Any longer and you will be over-kneading. *If you are using skim milk ricotta - you may have to use more flour, as there is more water content in skim ricotta.
  • Divide dough into 4 parts. Take one part and roll into a long, 1″ diameter log. Cut gnocchi into 1″ pieces. You may use the tines of a fork to get those pretty grooves that will eventually disappear after frying anyways.
  • Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and olive oil. when butter is just lightly browned, add gnocchi in single layer. Fry on one side for 2 minutes, flip. Add chilli. Fry other side for 1-2 minutes. Timing really depends on how big/thick your gnocchi is. Do a taste test - do you taste flour? Not done yet. Serve with a sprinkling of lemon zest, parmegiano and parsley.

This recipe was a disaster. The gnocchi were too soft and the sauce was too sour.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gnocchi turned out gummy.

The lemon sauce was too thin for my taste, so I added a little bit of flour to thicken it up.

I would have liked the gnocchi to be a bit more crispy, but overall this was a great dish.

I'm not a huge fan of gnocchi, but this recipe changed my mind. The lemon sauce really made the dish.

This dish was a bit more time-consuming to make than I expected, but it was definitely worth it.

I didn't have any ricotta cheese, so I used cottage cheese instead. It worked just as well.

The lemon sauce was a bit too sour for my taste, so I added a little bit of honey to balance it out.

I followed the recipe exactly and the gnocchi turned out perfectly. They were golden brown and crispy on the outside, and soft and pillowy on the inside.

This lemon ricotta gnocchi was a hit with my family! The gnocchi were light and fluffy, and the lemon sauce was perfectly tangy and creamy. I will definitely be making this dish again.
