Homemade Gnocchi
Ingredients
- 1 kg potatoes peeled and chopped
- 240 g chickpea flour
- 120 g tapioca starch more for dusting
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Peel and chop the potatoes. Transfer them to a pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook the potatoes for 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes and then mash them with a potato masher or fork.
- Add the chickpea flour and tapioca starch and knead with your hands until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add more chickpea flour.
- Cut the dough into equally sized pieces and dust with a little bit tapioca starch. With your fingers, roll each piece to strands. Use a knife to cut the dough into 2 cm pieces and form them into small balls with your hands. If you want ridges on your Gnocchi, you can toll each ball over the back of a fork.
- Add the Gnocchi to a pot of salted boiling water. Cook them for 2-4 minutes or until they rise to the surface. Then remove them with a slotted spoon.
- If you want your Gnocchi super crispy, fry the cooked Gnocchi in a pan with a little bit of oil.
Notes
- These Gnocchi taste amazing fried with onion and garlic or with a creamy homemade tomato sauce.
