Method
Preparation
- Roast your sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for about 45 minutes or until soft. Allow them to cool, then scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- To the sweet potato, add the flour, egg, grated parmesan, salt, and nutmeg. Stir until a dough begins to form.
- Lightly dust your hands and work surface with flour. Transfer the dough and knead gently until it’s smooth and pliable, being careful not to overwork it.
- Divide the dough into smaller portions. Roll each portion into a long cylinder, about 1 inch in diameter. Cut into bite-sized pieces (approximately 1-inch intervals). You can shape them using a fork to create grooves.
Cooking
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water. They’re done when they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sage leaves and cook until fragrant and crispy. Toss the cooked gnocchi in the sage butter sauce.
- Plate the gnocchi, sprinkle with extra parmesan, and savor every bite!
Notes
Store leftover gnocchi in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can freeze uncooked gnocchi on a baking sheet; once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Reheat gently in a pan or boiling water.
