Herb-Ricotta Gnocchi with Roasted Garlic Cream Sauce
Savor tender, homemade gnocchi bursting with herb-infused ricotta and cottage cheese, complemented by a silky roasted garlic cream sauce. This dish harmonizes the light tang of Greek yogurt with a hint of olive oil and fresh basil, delivering comforting flavors and a delightful texture perfect for a wholesome meal.
INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 large egg
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/8 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 roasted garlic clove
1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
1/8 cup grated Parmesan cheese
PREPARATION
In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, and egg until smooth.
Stir in the whole wheat flour gradually, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour.
Lightly dust a surface with flour and gently roll portions of the dough into logs about 1/2-inch in diameter. Cut the logs into small 1-inch pieces to form gnocchi.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
For the sauce, in a small bowl combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, olive oil, mashed roasted garlic, grated Parmesan, and chopped basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toss the warm gnocchi with the roasted garlic cream sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Plate immediately and garnish with a little extra basil or Parmesan if desired.
