Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add half the flour to a shallow dish.
- Add ricotta, egg, remaining flour, half the Parmesan, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper to a large bowl, then stir to combine.
- Scoop 12 portions of ricotta mixture, then gently roll each one between your palms to form a soft ball. Add ricotta ball to the dish with the flour, then roll to coat. Repeat with remaining gnudi.
- When all gnudi are coated in flour, transfer to the prepared baking sheet and place in the freezer to firm slightly, 10 min.
- Pick sage leaves from stems.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Line a plate with paper towels. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 2 tbsp oil, then sage leaves. Fry until crisp, 1 min. (TIP: We love to use olive oil for frying sage!)
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer fried sage to the paper towel-lined plate. Season with salt while hot. Set aside.
- Add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Add gnudi to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until gnudi float to the top, 4-5 min. Remove gnudi from the pot using a slotted spoon. Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
- Heat the same large non-stick pan from step 2 over medium heat. When hot, add garlic. Cook for 1 min, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Add crushed tomatoes, half the vegetable stock powder and 1/4 tsp sugar, then stir to combine.
- Add gnudi, then stir to combine.
- Divide gnudi between bowls, then top with fried sage and remaining parmesan.
