Ingredients

How to make it

  • 1. Peel and chop the potatoes and pumpkin, then boil until soft. Drain, then mash until really smooth.
  • 2. Mix in the egg and flour and season well. Add a bit more flour if the mixture is too soft to handle (it's best without too much flour in, so treat it delicately and see if it forms a very soft ball).
  • 3. Pick up a handful of the dough, and roll out into a thick sausage (1 inch wide) on a floured surface. Chop the sausage up into 1/2 inch pieces. Repeat with the remainder of the dough.
  • 4. Drop the gnocchi into a pan of boiling water in batches, leaving to cook for about 2 minutes. They will float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  • 5. Carefully stir the gnocchi into plenty of tasty sauce. I made a tomato and chilli sauce for this one.
  • Enjoy!

    Lovely post for fall, can't wait to try!! The US term would be "starchy" such as a Russet =)

    Thanks for your comments! Maybe 'floury' is an English term - it means the potatoes that are a bit more fluffy inside, like King Edwards (instead of 'waxy' potatoes, like the ones you;d use in salads). I've got another recipe for potato gnocchi if you'd like to make that before this one!

    This is very neat. What is a floury potato? I've never made Gnocchi before but I'd sure like to try.
