Recipe Review - Ricotta Gnocchi - vegetarian book (pg:87)

[maddy]

I found this very easy and  I liked the texture too.
I used the larger ingredient amount as suggested:
600g ricotta & 300g bakers flour.
It was enough for 2 adults and 2 children.

They look great Maddie.  I will have to give that recipe a try soon.  Thanks for the review.

Looks great Maddy. I haven't tried making Gnocchi yet either.

Excellent Maddy.  Nonna would be impressed.  Haven't tried this recipe.  I had troubles with the potato gnocchi, but ricotta will hopefully be more forgiving.

How long did it take to make the batch?

They look lovely Maddy. I've ever only made the potato ones, I'll have to try the ricotta ones.

How long did it take to make the batch?

Shame the TM couldn't roll the dough  into little balls as well! 
Probably took a good 30 minutes shaping them, but I figure the whole process of mixing and kneadining in 1 minute....justifies the rolling time 

I haven't made the potato ones yet, but I was more than  happy with the texture of the ricotta ones.

they look fabulous maddy. i have a friend who swears by these too.

i will have to try them, i love the potato ones but am struggling making them GF

Thx Maddy  - it would be great - maybe they need to include a nonna with every TMX to help roll them

  That's the perfect solution Thermomixer!
I would love to have a nonna 

[meganjane]

  Me too!

I've never been particularly fond of potato gnocchi, so will definitely try the ricotta one. Thanks for the review.

I 'discovered' some pumpkin gnocchi in the freezer and used them on a potato pie instead of the potato. I put some pesto over it and yum.

[maddy]

Cookie....did you make the pumpkin ones in the TM?
Could you pretty-please share your recipe?
I can imagine them with extra roasted pumpkin in a sage sauce 

[Tebasile]

Wow, they look good maddy. Did you boil them in water or steamed with the varoma?

[maddy]

Hi Tebasile, bring a large pot of salted water to the boil  and add the gnocchi.  Once they float to the top, they're cooked (about 5 minutes).  I tend to gently stir them whilst coming to the boil.

These look great Maddy, have never had ricotta ones before, must try them soon.
