Gnocchi With Chilli Sauce Recipes

GNOCCHI WITH SPICY TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Bake potatoes in a 350 degrees F oven until tender. When cool enough to handle scoop out the insides and put through a ricer to eliminate any lumps. In a small bowl combine the egg, salt and nutmeg. On a lightly floured work surface mound the potatoes making a well in the center. Pour in the egg mixture then, using your fingers or a fork, begin to mix the eggs into the potatoes working from the outside in as to not break the "moat." When eggs are about halfway combined begin to sprinkle a bit of the flour and cheese over the potatoes, continuing to lightly knead, bringing the mixture together adding more flour as needed to make a pliable dough. Once the dough is no longer sticky the dough is done. It is important not to overwork the dough creating gluten giving the dough a dense texture. Working quickly and lightly will give you light, airy gnocchi. Dust the board with flour and roll 1/4 of the dough into a long rope about 1-inch thick. Cut into thumb size sections and set aside, tossing with a bit of flour to avoid them from sticking together. Repeat with the other pieces of dough. Using the back of a fork take each gnocchi and gently roll over the tines by lightly pressing with your thumb and allowing the gnocchi to fall off the fork. Boil gnocchi in a large pot of salted water until they float. When they float they are done. Remove and toss immediately with Spicy Tomato Sauce. Garnish with torn basil leaves and additional cheese.;
• In a large saucepot over medium-high heat add olive oil. Add onions and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add oregano, chili flakes and tomato paste, stir until combined and paste cooks into the mixture, about 1 minute. Add red wine, stirring until almost completely evaporated. Season with kosher salt, pepper, to taste, and tomatoes using the back of a spoon to break up the tomatoes. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and allow to cook down about 20 minutes. Taste the sauce and add red wine vinegar, cheese and additional salt and pepper, if needed. If desired you may puree the sauce at this point using an immersion blender or keep it chunky. Serve with gnocchi.;

GNOCCHI WITH CHERRY TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes.
• While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the fresh gnocchi, and cook until the gnocchi float to the surface, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently strain out the gnocchi and place into a serving dish.
• Stir the basil and olives into the simmering sauce, and cook for one minute. Pour the sauce over the drained gnocchi and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.

GNOCCHI IN FONTINA SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
• Once the gnocchi goes into the pot, start the sauce, as you want the gnocchi to be done first. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots, and cook for a few minutes, until tender. Stir in the cream, and heat to almost a boil. Gradually mix in the fontina and parmesan cheeses, being careful not to boil. Stir until smooth, then remove from the heat immediately, or the sauce may clump.

GNOCCHI WITH GREEN CHIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes and boil them in lightly salted water until tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Drain and allow to cool. Mash them coarsely. Stir in the egg, then the 2 tablespoons of cream. Add the salt and nutmeg.
• Place 1 1/2 cups of the flour in a bowl, add the potato mixture and cover with another 1 1/2 cups of flour.
• Using a pastry cutter or spatula, cut the flour into the potato mixture until thoroughly mixed. Add more flour if the mixture feels very sticky. The dough should be soft but not elastic, and only slightly tacky.
• On a work surface, form the mass into a log. Divide the log into smaller portions and, using your hands, roll out into 1/2-inch-thick cylinders. Cut into 1-inch-long pieces. Dust them well with flour.
• Hold a flour-dusted fork, concave side up, in one hand. With the other hand, push a piece of dough into the tines, making an indentation with your thumb. Then roll the dough off the tines, making a shape like a tiny bowl with ridges on the bottom. Flour the fork and repeat with the rest of the dough.
• To make the sauce, saute the chives in a saucepan with the butter, 1 tablespoon of water and the salt and pepper for 10 minutes, or until tender. Add the vinegar and stir. Add the cream. Simmer the mixture for an additional 10 minutes over very low heat. Allow to cool and then briefly liquefy in a blender, making sure not to churn into butter by overblending.
• Cook the gnocchi in boiling, salted water for 4 to 5 minutes, or until they swell and rise to the top. Put the chive cream in a large pan, add the gnocchi and gently shake the pan over low heat to coat them with sauce. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
