They are prepared with gnocchi made of semolina, whole milk, butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, seasoned with salt and black pepper.[1] They are baked in the oven after being sprinkled with Parmesan cheese, and are traditionally topped with meatballs, tomato sauce and parmesan cheese.

Gluten-free gnocchi alla romana are made by replacing semolina with cornmeal.

The dish is also present in the Piedmontese culinary tradition due to the presence of butter, which is a common ingredient in Northern Italy.[2]
