Ingredients
1 cup ricotta (250 grams)
1 large egg
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (50 grams)
2-3 pinches salt
2 dashes pepper
1 cup all purpose flour (125 grams)

SAUCE
1/4 cup butter (52.5 grams)
6-7 leaves sage leaves

Instructions
1. Place the ricotta in a sieve and let drain for approximately 15 minutes.
2. In a large bowl whisk until creamy and thick the ricotta, egg, parmesan, salt and pepper.
3. Then add the flour and mix until almost combined, then move to a flat surface and form into
a compact soft dough, remove pieces and form into a rope and cut into 3/4 inch (2 cm)
pieces, roll the pieces off a fork to make ridges or leave plain.
4. In a large pot of boiling salted water cook the gnocchi for approximately 2 minutes or until
they float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon and add to the sauce and toss and serve,
sprinkle with parmesan cheese before serving. Enjoy!

SAUCE
1. In a large pan add the butter and sage leaves, cook on medium heat until butter has melted,
cook for about 2 minutes. Add the gnocchi and toss and serve.

Notes
If the dough is too sticky, then add a little extra flour, although not too much because the
dough should be very soft.
