Ingredients
20 - 25 servings
750g
cow’s milk ricotta, well-strained
3
large eggs
75g
grated Parmigiano Reggiano
160g
00 flour
1
tbsp baking powder
Fresh parsley, finely chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Extra virgin olive oil, for frying
Preparation
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strained ricotta, eggs, salt, pepper, and grated Parmigiano Reggiano until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Gradually fold in the 00 flour, baking powder, and chopped parsley until the mixture is well combined. If the mixture seems a bit too wet, add an extra tablespoon of flour as needed to help it hold together.
Step 3
Heat extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over low heat. Drop spoonfuls (about 1–2 tablespoons each) of the ricotta mixture into the skillet, gently flattening each one with a spatula to form a disc.
Step 4
Cook each frittatina for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy, adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning.
Step 5
Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve these Frittatine di Ricotta warm, garnished with a sprinkle of parsley, and enjoy alongside your favorite glass of Gratsi wine. Buon appetito!
