Ricotta Polpette
Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
300 g ricotta
2 TBspoons grated cheese (Parmigiano or Grana)
70 g flour
1 egg yolk
1 organic lemon (zest)
1 teaspoon finely chopped parsley leaves
A little Extra virgin olive oil
salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Put all the ingredients into a mixing ball: the ricotta, the grated cheese, the egg yolk, the finely grated lemon zest and the the finely chopped parsley, salt to taste, and bring them together stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula, forming rather soft dough.
With wet hands, form little balls (tablespoon size) and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
Drizzle a little Extra virgin olive oil over them (or even better, brush with oil) and bake for about 15 minutes.
Flip them after 10 minutes .
