Ingredients

  • 250 g of gnocchi
  • 20 g of fresh basil
  • 50 g of raw cashews
  • 150 g of ricotta cheese
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 40 ml of extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste

For the salt cured egg yolk:

  • 1 egg yolk
  • Salt

Instructions

For the salt cured egg yolk:

  • Place a generous amount of salt in a deep plate or bowl. Using your fingers, create a small crater in the center to hold the egg yolk.
  • Place the yolk in the salt crater, cover it with more salt and let it rest overnight to cure.

For the gnocchi:

  • Open the ChefBot, place the blade attachment and add 20 g of fresh basil (reserve a few leaves for garnish), 50 g of cashews, 150 g of ricotta, 1 peeled and chopped garlic clove, 40 ml of olive oil and salt to taste.
  • Chop for 20 seconds at speed 6.
  • Open the ChefBot, transfer the sauce to a bowl and set aside.
  • To cook the gnocchi, pour 1.5 L of salted water into the ChefBot without any attachment, select the steam function and close the lid.
  • When the water starts boiling, open the ChefBot, add the gnocchi, set the cooking time recommended by the manufacturer (usually 2–3 minutes) and close.
  • Open the ChefBot, drain the gnocchi and, while they are still very hot, mix them with the sauce, stirring gently so they don’t break.
  • Garnish with grated cured egg yolk and serve immediately.
