Malfatti with Sage Butter sauce

Malfatti are gnocchi like morsels of pasta from Tuscany also known as Gnudi. Malfatti in Italian means "badly formed". These tender, fluffy, delicate dumplings are made with a mixture of blanched spinach which gives the dumplings a vibrant green colour, ricotta, parmigiana and flour are a true Italian classic. They are a great addition to any meal and go great with burnt butter, sage butter sauce or tomato sauce. My personal favourite pairing however is with this beautiful, rich sage butter sauce which compliments all of the flavours of the Malfatti perfectly.

Both the malfatti and the sauce don't. . .
