Rice gnocchi (Nhoque de arroz)

Ingredients

1/2 cups of rice cru
1 egg
1 colher of sopa of chopped parsley
1 colher of sopa of coentro picado
1/2 colher of cebolinha chopped
1 e 1/2 cups of plain flour
Salt to taste
Água o suficiente para cozinhar o rice
8 tablespoons of vegetable oil (para cozinhar a massa e ferver com a water)

Where to find ingredients

Look for Brazilian ingredients such as requeijão, goiabada, guaraná soda, calabresa, cassava flour, tapioca starch, cachaça and jiló in Brazilian or Latin American grocers, international food shops, gourmet supermarkets and online speciality grocery sections. Standard produce, dairy, meat and pantry items are usually available in supermarkets, wet markets and neighbourhood grocery stores. If needed, use only clearly labelled substitutes here: cream cheese for requeijão, chorizo-style smoked sausage for calabresa, and panko or dry breadcrumbs where farinha de rosca is unavailable.

Preparation method

  1. Cook o rice em water com sal until ficar well macio
  2. Drain o excesso de water, se houver
  3. No liquidificador, bata o rice cozido com o ovo, a salsinha, o coentro e a cebolinha picada until obter uma mistura homogênea
  4. Transfer a dough para uma panela
  5. Add a plain flour aos poucos, misturando
  6. Take a panela to the heat baixo, cozinhando a dough sem parar de mexer, until que ela desgrude completamente do fundo da panela, formando uma bola
  7. Season com sal to taste
  8. Remove a dough da panela e deixe amornar um pouco
  9. Em uma superfície limpa e levemente enfarinhada, modele a dough em formato de rocambole com cerca de 2 cm de diâmetro
  10. Cut os nhoques em pedaços de aproximadamente 2 cm
  11. Em uma panela grande, ferva bastante water com sal e cerca de 4 colheres de sopa de óleo
  12. Add os nhoques à water fervente, aos poucos, para não grudar
  13. Remove os nhoques da water assim que eles subirem à superfície, indicando que estão cozidos
  14. Drain os nhoques cozidos e, se desejar, finalize salteando-os in a frying pan com o restante do vegetable oil ou sirva diretamente com o molho de sua preferência
