Gnocchi is a very common dish in Italian cuisine. Reminiscent of our lazy dumplings, but still a little different. The ingredients can change depending on the recipe, there are gnocchi with potatoes or cottage cheese, with flour or semolina, with spinach. Well, we will cook with pumpkin! Pumpkin taste is practically not felt in them, but what a beautiful color!

Recipe "Gnocchi with pumpkin "

Ingredients for 2 servings

pumpkin

250 g

cottage cheese

200 g

eggs

2 pcs

flour

100 g

salt

to taste

cream 10%

250 ml

blue cheese (gorgonzola or dorblu)

100 g

Step 1/5

Remove the flesh from the pumpkin, drizzle with water and bake until soft in the oven under foil or in the microwave.

Step 2/5

Then grind the pumpkin in a blender, mix with cottage cheese and eggs, sift the flour and knead the dough.

Step 3/5

The dough should be moist, slightly sticky to the hands, roll into a ball and leave for half an hour.

Step 4/5

Dust the table with flour, roll the dough with sausage and cut it into small diamonds with a knife. In principle, you can already throw such diamonds into boiling water, they are beautiful in themselves, or you can still tinker a little and give your fingers a spherical shape, and make an imprint on the back of the fork. Italians believe that the sauce is better retained in these dents, and gnocchi tastes better from this. I don't know if it's true or not, I didn't feel a big difference, but it looks beautiful)

Step 5/5

Boil gnocchi in boiling water until surfacing (throw one at a time so as not to stick together) Serve in cheese sauce melted in cream. By the way, you can stick a lot at once and freeze, and indulge yourself with home Italian cuisine at least every day!
