Sweet Potato Gnocchi With Goats Cheese And Wilted Salad Recipes

SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roast the sweet potatoes until tender, approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Boil the Idaho potatoes until a knife pierces them easily.
• After all of the potatoes have cooled, peel and grate them. In a bowl, combine all the potatoes, by mixer or by hand, with the eggs, flour, salt and pepper. Mix only enough to incorporate all of the ingredients, and do not overmix.
• To test, take a small portion of the dough with floured hands, form into a ball, and blanch in boiling salted water. When it floats, remove, taste, and adjust seasoning.
• Proceed with shaping the gnocchi into oblong balls, then mark with the back of a fork. Boil shaped gnocchi until they float. Drain.
• Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil, then pork and gnocchi. Saute until the gnocchi is slightly golden. Add remaining ingredients (except almonds and parsley) and reduce the liquid by 1/2. Finish with almonds and garnish with chopped parsley.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Start with the pork shoulder, season with salt, pepper and dust with flour. In an extremely hot pan, sear the pork in oil until very brown on all sides. Add celery, chopped orange and vegetables. Add the chicken stock and boil down, scraping the browned crust from the seared meat as it boils. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and place in the oven for 1 hour. Remove pork, strain liquid and boil down to 1/2 the amount. Reserve the pork and the reduced braising liquid separately.

SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a fork, lightly prick holes all over the sweet potatoes. Set the sweet potatoes on a foil-lined roasting tray and bake until fork tender, 30 minutes.
• While still hot, cut the sweet potatoes in half and scoop the flesh into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the 1 cup Parmesan, olive oil, brown sugar, thyme, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Beat on medium speed until the ingredients come together. Increase the speed to high and mix until light and airy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Dump the sweet potato mixture onto a lightly floured work surface and gently knead, adding small amounts of flour at a time, until the dough comes together and holds as a single mass. When done, the dough should be light and tender to the touch. Place in a floured bowl, cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Divide the dough in half on a lightly floured work surface. Roll each half into a 3/4-inch-thick rope. With a sharp knife, cut the ropes into 1-inch "pillows."
• Bring a medium saucepot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float, 2 to 3 minutes.
• While the gnocchi are cooking, set a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and melt until frothy and nutty-smelling. Drain the gnocchi, reserving some of the cooking water; add the gnocchi straight to the saute pan. Toss to brown lightly, then season with salt and pepper. Once browned, you can add a little of the pasta water to make a light sauce. Divide among serving plates and shower with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.

Dust ropes with flour and cut with a bench scraper into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer pieces onto a sheet pan and let dry on the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate until needed.
• While gnocchi dry, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

• Wrap the sweet potatoes in foil, place them directly on the oven rack, and bake for 30 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a skewer. Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly. Then peel them and pass them through a potato ricer into a large bowl (if you don't have a potato ricer, you can mash them with a fork). Let the sweet potato puree cool completely.
• Stir the Parmesan cheese and nutmeg into the sweet potato puree. Mix in enough flour to form a firm, slightly elastic dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Using your hands, gently roll 1 portion on the work surface to form a 1/2-inch-thick rope. Cut it crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Roll each piece over the tines of a dinner fork to form grooves. Arrange the gnocchi in a single layer on a floured baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining 3 portions of dough.
