Last year I spent a
few months in Europe.
First half; was spent
with Mum & Brother travelling around the North of Italy, visiting family
and eating plate after plate of delicious authentic Italian food.
To name a few;
Zia Rita’s Trofetti con pesto… fresh pesto only!
& Minestra brodo con tortelini

| Genovese Focaccia |

Mezzo Kilo, Nutella & Kinder, QC Gelato

Marti’s Pomodoro
I regret not taking more photo’s of the food I ate!
So one night at
Marti’s, we walk in to find her dropping dough like squares into a shallow pan
of oil.
Intrigued, we sat back
and watched as each square bubbled and browned into a yummy soft, yet crispy
bread.
We ate a few plain
ones on the side while the rest of the batch was cooking. Before we were treated to
cheeses and cold meats which is used for stuffing the Gnocco Fritto.
To create a kind of, Gnocco Pocket.
Sweet and simple.
Downside; I forgot to
ask for the recipe.
Having been a year it
slipped from my mind. Until my gorgeous little Nonna told us about the local
Napolitana club who were hosting a gnocco fritto lunch event.
& of course… there
was no question! We would be going!!
These are the pics from our luncheon, enjoy.
