Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

--------------------------GNOCCHI-------------------------------
1 lb Fresh spinach; washed and 1 c Parmesan; freshly grated
- stems removed 1 Egg; lightly beaten
2 tb Onion; finely chopped 1/4 ts Nutmeg; freshly grated
3 tb Butter Salt Pepper to taste
1 lb Ricotta cheese 1 c Flour

Cook the spinach with just the water that clings to it from cleaning.
Cool. Squeeze as dry as possible with hands and chop finely. Saute
the spinach and onion in the butter until soft. Transfer to a bowl.
Stir in ricotta, Parmesan, and egg. Mix well. Season with nutmeg,
salt and pepper. (You can mix in processor before adding the flour).
Stir in flour. The mixture will be slightly sticky. Flour hands and
shape mixture into small balls, no larger than 3/4 inch in diameter.
Reflour hands whenever mixture begins to get sticky. Dry on a floured
baking tray. To freeze: place in freezer on trays until firm.

Cream Sauce: Simmer butter and cream in a saucepan over medium heat
until thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes. Bring a large pot of salted
water to a boil. Drop in the gnocchi. Let the water return to a boil
and cook gnocchi until they float to the top. Remove with a slotted
spoon and place in a warmed bowl. Add Cream Sauce and Parmesan
cheese. Gently toss to coat well. Serve immediately.
