3 free-range egg yolks
30g/1oz parmesan, freshly grated
pinch freshly grated nutmeg

Method
Mix the flour, ricotta, egg yolks, parmesan, nutmeg and seasoning together in a
large bowl to form a soft, moist dough.
Tip the mixture out onto a floured work surface and knead for 3-5 minutes. Roll
the dough into a long, thin sausage shape, then cut into dumplings about 2cm/
1in long.
Cook the dumplings for 3-4 minutes in a large saucepan of salted boiling water.
Meanwhile for the sauce, heat the olive oil in a frying pan and fry the garlic
and chilli for one minute, then remove the pan from the heat and add the plum
tomatoes.
Return the pan to the heat, bring to the boil and simmer for five minutes.
Remove the dumplings from the pan with a slotted spoon and add them to the
tomato sauce.
To serve, spoon the dumplings onto a serving plate and sprinkle over the basil
leaves.
