Prep time: 20 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Total time: 35 mins | Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
- Honest Earth® Creamy Mashed Potatoes, prepared
- 1 ea. Large egg yolk
- 1 cup All-purpose flour, maybe a bit more
- Pinch Salt
METHOD
- Set 6 quarts of salted water to a simmer in a large pot.
- Mix mashed potatoes and egg yolk together.
- Add in flour and salt. If after the flour is stirred in the dough is still sticky, add more flour a little at a time until you have a fairly dry dough.
- Scoop out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead this a few times just to make sure everything is combined well.
- Divide dough into four even pieces and use your hands to roll one of the pieces into a long, even strand approximately ½” in diameter.
- Cut into individual dumplings an 1″ long and use a fork to put the signature grooves in each dumpling which helps the gnocchi hold on to the sauce.
- Place gnocchi in simmering water and cook until they rise to the top which signals that they are done.
- Drain and top with sauce of your choice.
Add gnochhi to the lamb ragu and top with cambozola, greens, and pickled mustard seeds.
