Instructions

  1. Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl, except for the corn meal. If too wet, add some breadcrumbs; too dry, add milk.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours to overnight.
  3. Using wet hands, shape the gnudi into small balls. Place on a tray or countertop sprinkled with a little corn meal or semolina.
  4. Heat the tomato sauce in a sauté pan. When the sauce comes to a simmer, gently place the gnudi in the sauce. Cover and cook for about 5-6 minutes.
  5. Gently turn them with a wooden spoon, cover and allow to cook another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and serve with crusty bread.

Notes

  • Remember to plan ahead for this dish as the gnudi should be refrigerated before cooking.
