Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, adding 1 tablespoon of salt.
- In a medium bowl mix sweet potatoes and ricotta cheese together mixing well. Add parmesan cheese and nutmeg. Mix in flour starting with a 1/4 cup. Add a tablespoon at a time until a soft dough forms.
- Divide dough into three portions. On a floured surface roll the dough forming a long rope that is about 1/2 in diameter. Cut each rope into 20 pieces. Add the indentation if you would like using a fork.
- Place gnocchi in boiling water (up to 10 at a time. Don't over crowd). Stir once to ensure gnocchi doesn't stick to the bottom. When the gnocchi floats to the top, let it simmer another minute. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet. Repeat until all gnocchi is cooked and let cool.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. When melted, gently add gnocchi and saute until a light crust forms. Turn once. Keep warm and repeat process for remaining gnocchi.
Notes
- I prefer roasting my sweet potatoes. To follow this method, clean and pierce potatoes with a fork. Put on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F for 1 hour or until a fork and easily pierce the potato. Let cook and cut in half lengthwise. Remove pulp and mash with a potato masher or pulse in a food processor.
