Instructions
- Place the mashed potatoes (while still hot/warm) into a large bowl and spread them out to release the steam. Next, add the pumpkin, egg, salt and nutmeg and mix well.
- Add the flour, potato starch and grated cheese and continue to mix.
- When it comes together, place on a flour dusted board or countertop and knead gently to form a smooth dough.
- Put the dough onto a well-floured countertop or work area and knead gently until the dough has a uniform texture. Cut off a piece of dough and leave the rest on the counter with the bowl covering it (upside-down).
- Roll the piece of dough into a rope and cut off pieces (about ½" to ¾" long) with a small, sharp knife.
- Shape the pieces into gnocchi on a fork or a gnocchi board using gentle pressure, and easing up as you roll downwards. Use enough flour so that they don't stick, then place on a semolina covered tray or countertop.
- (Make the butter-sage sauce if cooking immediately.)
- If not cooking the potato pumpkin gnocchi immediately, you can freeze them on the tray, then place into a freezer bag when frozen, and store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- Butter Sage Sauce: Melt the butter (as much as you need for the amount of gnocchi you are cooking) with the sage in a sauté pan.
- To cook the gnocchi: drop into the salted, boiling water and remove with a slotted spoon as soon as they float to the top or within 30 seconds, or so. Gently place the potato pumpkin gnocchi into a the pan with the butter sage sauce, and toss gently.
- Serve immediately.
