Ricotta Gnocchis

INGREDIENTS

- 210 g Ricotta cheese
- 1,5 tbsp sugar (I would use even less)
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tbsp water
- 3/4 cup flour + some to work
- 2 tbsp butter

PREPARATION

- In a bowl  mix the egg, the sugar, the salt and the ricotta cheese

- With the help of a spatula add the flour and work the mixture till you can form a ball. Do not overknead it!

-In a floured surface cut the dough into portions and form stripes

- Cut the stripes with a sharp knife into pieces of 1,5 cm aprox

- Boil the pasta around 2 minuts. It is easy to know when they are cooked because they will float on the water!

- Pour in in a sieve and put some cold water. Add butter (optional)
