Spud Lite Gnocchi Boscaiola
SERVES: 4 – 6
INGREDIENTS
GNOCCHI
- 1kg Spud Lite potatoes
- 2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
- pinch ground nutmeg
- 150g plain flour
BOSCAIOLA SAUCE
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large brown onion, peeled and finely diced
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 125g pancetta, diced
- 150g button mushrooms, diced
- 1 cup pure cream
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan
- salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
METHOD
Step 1 – Pre-heat Oven
Preheat oven on 220 degrees Celsius (180 degrees Celsius fan-forced).
Step 2 – Bake Spud Lite Potatoes
Place potatoes with skins on in preheated oven for 1 hour 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing skins and scooping flesh out.
Step 3 – Begin Cooking Sauce
Meanwhile for the sauce, heat oil in a medium saucepan over a low heat. Add onion, garlic, pancetta and mushrooms, cover and cook for 10 minutes or until onion is soft. Add cream and peas, bring to the boil and cook for 5 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly. Add parmesan, salt and pepper, stirring until combined.
Step 4 – Mash Spud Lite Potatoes
Mash hot cooked potato until very smooth, using a potato ricer if possible.
Step 5 – Make Spud Lite Gnocchi Mix
Place warm mashed potato into a medium mixing bowl. Add yolks, baking powder, salt and pepper, mixing until well combined. Add flour and gently knead mixture to a smooth dough.
Step 6 – Make Gnocchi
On a clean lightly floured surface, evenly divide dough into four pieces and roll each into approximately 30cm long sausages, dusting with extra flour. Lay sausages side by side and using a knife cut gnocchi into 2cm pieces. To shape gnocchi, use a gnocchi board or fork to create grooves on one side and an indent on the other, to help the sauce coat the gnocchi.
Step 7 – Serve!
To cook gnocchi, bring a large saucepan of salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully place gnocchi in water and cook for 2-3 minutes or until gnocchi floats to the top. Using a slotted spoon remove from pan and add to sauce, tossing gently to coat.
