I got this idea from ‘My Kitchen Rules’ one night and the smiley boys made mixed mushroom gnocchi – and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head ever since.  Homemade gnocchi is surprisingly easy if you have a bit of time on your hands – and it tastes so delicious – serve with a burnt butter sauce or a simple Bolognaise.  Delish!

Method

  1. Make sure the potatoes are cooked until very tender and mashed with no lumps.

  2. Place the mashed potato in a bowl and add the the rest of the ingredients.

  3. Knead lightly to form a firm dough.

  4. Divide the dough into five or six pieces and roll out like a sausage on a floured surface.

  5. Cut approximately 2cm pieces of the sausage and set the dough aside.

  6. To cook, heat a large pot of salted water until boiling.

  7. Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water (in batches so you don't crowd the pot) and cook for 3 - 4 minutes or until the gnocchi floats to the top.

  8. Remove the cooked gnocchi and drain well.Eat immediately and enjoy!
