Ingredients
For Pisarei
- 150 g breadcrumbs - 1 ¼ cups
- 150 g flour - 1 cup
- 250 ml water - 1 cup
For the Bean Sauce
- 200 ml tomato passata - ~¾ cup
- 400 g boiled beans - ~ 1 pound
- 1 onion
- 60 g pancetta - 2 oz
- 40 ml olive oil - 3 tablespoons, extra virgin
- salt - to taste
- parmigiano reggiano - to taste
Instructions
The Pisarei Dough
- Sift the flour into a bowl. Then add the breadcrumbs, grated very finely.
- Add the water a little at a time. Knead the mixture.
- Work the dough vigorously to form a firm loaf. Then form small pasta ropes with your hands on a cutting board.
- Cut small pieces of dough about and press each dumpling with your thumb to create a hollow in the middle. Set aside to dry.
The Bean Sauce
- Peel and finely chop the onion. Then sauté the onion in a skillet for about 2 minutes.
- Cut the pancetta into small pieces. Add to the onion and stir.
- Let it cook then add the cooked beans drained of their water. Stir well.
- Add the tomato passata. Cover and simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes. Taste and add salt if necessary.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the Pisarei for a few minutes, just long enough for them to rise to the surface. Drain them with a slotted ladle.
- Transfer them directly to the pan with the bean sauce. Stir gently and leave to flavour for a few minutes. Serve with some parmigiano on top.
