Malloreddus, sometimes Italianized as gnocchetti sardi, are a type of pasta typical of Sardinian cuisine. They have the shape of thin ribbed shells, about long, and are made of semolina flour and water.
Malloreddus are typical of the area of Medio Campidano (province of South Sardinia), but correspond to equivalent types of pasta, made with similar techniques, but in smaller sizes, in other parts of Sardinia and also known as macarrones de punzu, cigiones, macarones caidos and cravaos.
