Ingredients
Scale
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 cup Ricotta Cheese
½ cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
1½ cups All-Purpose Flour
1 large Egg
1 teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Optional: Red Pepper Flakes, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Fresh Herbs (basil or parsley)
Instructions
Prepare the Spinach: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, sautéed spinach, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Make the Dough: In another bowl, gradually mix the all-purpose flour with a pinch of salt and enough water until a soft dough forms. Knead it on a floured surface until smooth, about 5 minutes.
Form the Dumplings: Divide the dough into smaller portions. Roll each portion into a small circle (about ¼ inch thick). Place a small spoonful of filling in the center, then fold and pinch the edges to seal tightly.
Cook the Dumplings: Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully drop the dumplings in batches, cooking until they float to the surface (about 3-4 minutes). Remove them with a slotted spoon.
Serve: Arrange the dumplings on a plate, top with your choice of sauce or garnishes, and enjoy.
