Even if there might have occasionally been some gluten-free recipes among the ones I've posted so far I didn't publish anything specifically made for those suffer from celiac disease

I got this recipe from the book named "Celiachia" which has gluten-free recipes.





A Gluten-free Recipe: Chickpea and Meatballs Soup

Ingredients

Meatballs
250g veal, cut into 2-3cm pieces
90g grated parmesan
1 egg

150g celery stick, roughly chopped
75g carrots, roughly chopped
75g onion, quartered
80g spinach leaves, chopped
75g tomatoes, cubed
30g extra virgin olive oil
20g grated parmesan
750g water

    * Chop parsley for 5 seconds on Speed 7, set aside

    * Get small pieces, roll them into small balls, coat with corn starch and place them in Steaming Basket. (Wet your hands every once in a while to work better)

Sounds very nice farfallina. I would have to blitz the chickpeas so no one knew they were there.  ;) ;)
