Step 1
In a medium bowl, mix 1 cup ricotta, 1 cup squeezed-dry spinach, 1 egg, 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup Parmesan, and 1/2 tsp salt until just combined. The mixture will be soft but should hold together.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle simmer. Using two spoons, shape the mixture into 8-10 rough dumplings and drop them into the water.
Step 3
Simmer the dumplings for 4-5 minutes until they float to the surface and feel firm to the touch. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Step 4
Serve warm, topped with extra Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
