Cozy Savory Pumpkin Gnocchi Recipe

Savory Pumpkin Gnocchi

Today, I’m sharing a cozy and comforting dish perfect for a crisp fall day: savory pumpkin gnocchi. This unique recipe combines the earthy sweetness of pumpkin with the savory richness of parmesan and sage for a truly delightful flavor experience.

Ingredients:

• 400g pumpkin puree
• 200g potato, cooked and mashed
• 100g parmesan cheese, grated
• 300g all-purpose flour
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• Fresh sage leaves

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• potato masher
• rolling pin
• large pot

Start by combining the pumpkin puree, mashed potato, grated parmesan, flour, beaten egg, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix everything together until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms.

Next, lightly flour a clean work surface and turn out the dough. Divide it into smaller portions and roll each portion into long ropes about 1 inch thick. Cut the ropes into bite-sized pieces to form the gnocchi.

In a large pot of boiling salted water, drop the gnocchi in batches and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside.

For the finishing touch, heat some butter in a pan and add fresh sage leaves until fragrant. Toss the gnocchi in the sage butter until coated and serve hot, garnished with extra parmesan.

The cooked dish weighs approximately 1000g in total, with 4 servings. Each serving is around 250g, with an estimated calorie count of 300 per serving.

One unique tip to make this dish even more flavorful is to roast the pumpkin before pureeing it. This will bring out its natural sweetness and add depth to the gnocchi.

I hope you enjoy making this savory pumpkin gnocchi as much as I do. Feel free to get creative and adjust the ingredients to suit your taste preferences. Happy cooking!
