Method 6 steps

  1. Mix the flour, salt, eggs and water into a dough. Knead it until it is very smooth.

  2. Cover the dough in a plastic bowl, and let it rest for at least half an hour.

  3. Combine the ricotta and salt to make the filling.

  4. Roll the dough out into a sheet as thin as possible (about 3 mm thick). Cut into squares, and fill each square with some filling. Fold the dough over the filling diagonally to make a triangular dumpling.

  5. Boil the dumplings in water for about 5 minutes.

  6. Serve hot.
