Preparation duration: 15 minutes

Cooking duration: 25 minutes

 

Ingredients:

Black pepper

2 eggs, lightly beaten

½tsp garlic salt

½tsp ground nutmeg

3tbsp parsley, chopped

4tbsp plain flour

250g ricotta cheese

320g fresh spinach

Tomato sauce, to serve (or an alternative sauce of your choosing)

3tbsp vegetarian parmesan-style cheese, finely grated

Equipment:

kitchen towels

bowl

oven

frying pan

baking pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 190C (Gas Mark 5 / 375F).Cook the spinach until thoroughly wilted. You can do this by blanching it in a pan of hot water, pan frying it over a low heat for several minutes, or microwaving it in batches (this is what I did - it took around a minute per bowlful) When the spinach is wilted, leave it to cool, and then squeeze as much liquid out of it as possible. You can just do this with your hands, but it might be easier to wrap it in a clean tea towel and then squeeze over a sink.When the spinach is fairly dry, add it to a bowl with the remaining ingredients. Mix well.Shape the mixture into ball shapes, and place on a lightly greased baking tray. I made around 12 dumplings with my mixture, but if you prefer you could make slightly smaller balls and adjust the cooking time accordingly.Bake for 25 minutes, or until the dumplings are golden brown and slightly crispy. Serve with tomato sauce if desired.

Food Joke

Juan was driving down a country lane in his pickup when suddenly a chicken darted into the road in front of him. He slammed on his brakes, but realized that the chicken wasspeeding off down the road at about 30 miles an hour. Intrigued, he tried to follow the bird with his truck, but he couldn`t catch up to the accelerating chicken. Seeing itturn into a small farm, Juan followed it. To his astonishment, he realized that the chicken had three legs. Looking around the small farm, he noticed that ALL of thechickens had three legs.The farmer came out of his house, and Juan said, "Three-legged chickens? That`s astonishing!"The farmer replied, "Yep. I bred `em that way because I love drumsticks."Juan was curious. "How does a three-legged chicken taste?"The farmer smiled. "Dunno. Haven`t been able to catch one yet."
