Ingredients
For the gnocchi 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1 pound each, but can be less) 1 1/2 to 2 cups wheat flour 1 egg 1/4 cup parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 Cook the sweet potatoes: The microwave actually works great for the potatoes in this recipe! Prick them with a fork and then microwave until tender and cooked all the way through. For us, it took about 20 minutes total, around 10 minutes per side. However, the time will depend on your microwave and how big your potatoes are. Insert a knife into the potato to test for its doneness. (If you are against microwaves or don’t have one, you can also bake for about 40 minutes at 450°F.) 2 Mix the dough: Let the potatoes cool until you can handle them. Then scoop them from the skins into a bowl (or remove the skins if they peel easily). Mash them with a potato masher until smooth. Then add 1 egg, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and about 1 1/2 cups wheat flour. Mix with a spoon and then kneed until a dough forms. Then gradually add additional flour until the dough is not sticky – we added up to 1/2 cup for ours, so you may have to add a fair amount of extra flour to get it to a workable state. If it’s too sticky to roll out – add more flour! 3 Make the gnocchi: Divide the dough in four parts, Using your hands, roll out each piece into a very long, skinny roll. Then cut off small parts of the dough to form the gnocchi (we re-rolled them here so they looked uniform). If desired, use a fork to add an impression on the top of each gnocchi. Place the gnocchi on a parchment-paper lined baking sheet. From here you can freeze them, or immediately boil and prepare them as described below. (If you freeze them, you can boil them right out of the freezer.)
