Gluten-Free Ricotta and Lemon Gnocchi

I wanted to make my ricotta gnocchi recipe gluten-free and add a bit more to it by using lemon, fresh mint, and pine nuts.

Ingredients:
250 g ricotta
2 eggs
1½ cups grated cheddar, plus extra to sprinkle on top
1 cup gluten-free flour
1 lemon
water for boiling
butter for frying
herbs (I use parsley and mint)
pine nuts

Instructions:
1. Mix the ricotta, eggs, cheddar, and flour into a smooth dough.
2. Grate the lemon peel into the dough and add the juice from half the lemon.
3. Boil the water. Make little lumps out of the dough and drop them into the water. They are ready when they’ve floated to the top.
4. Fry the gnocchi in the butter and herbs. Add the pine nuts towards the end.
4. Serve with a little extra cheddar on top.
