Roasted Pumpkin and Ricotta Gnocchi

Ingredients Checklist

  • 2 cups cold roasted pumpkin
  • 180g soft ricotta
  • 100g finely grated parmesan
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 ½ 2 cups flour plus extra for work surface
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix mashed pumpkin and ricotta together.
  • Add egg yolks, parmesan, salt and pepper, gently mix together and add 1 cup flour and combine with a fork.
  • Heavily flour the bench and turn gnocchi mixture out, work the dough to come together.
  • Add extra flour to the dough and work through the dough.
  • Shape the dough into a log, cut into required size. Place onto a floured tray with space between so not touching. Pop into the freezer for 15 minutes. This makes handling a little easier and helps hold the shape when cooking.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil, add the gnocchi directly from the freezer to the water and cook till they float to the surface. Using a slotted spoon, lift out and drain.
  • Place into serving bowls and drizzle with the brown butter, some extra crumbled cheese and sage leaves. Eat immediately.
  • For the sauce melt butter in a pan, continue to cook till golden. Remove from heat, add the cheese and mix. Sauce is ready to use.
