Gradually add water while mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth.

Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each into a rope.

Cut the ropes into small pieces to form gnocchetti.

Use a fork to create ridges on each piece for sauce adherence.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.

Add the gnocchetti and cook until they float, about 2-3 minutes.

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Sauté garlic and onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.

Pour in tomato sauce and season with black pepper and red pepper flakes.

Simmer for 5-7 minutes to meld flavors.

Add the cooked gnocchetti to the sauce and toss to combine.

Serve hot, garnished with grated parmesan and fresh basil.
