Basic gnocchi made with Ibaraki Beni-Masari sweet potato — fluffy and bright. A simple butter-and-sage sauce highlights the sweet potato's sweetness and aroma.
Instructions
- Cook the sweet potato through (e.g. oven at 160°C / 320°F for 1 hour, or steam) until the center is fully softened.
- While still hot, peel the sweet potato and mash it in a bowl with a fork.
- Add the egg yolk, cake flour, parmesan, and nutmeg to the bowl.
- Fold gently — don't overwork the dough — until it just comes together.
- Roll the dough into a long rope on the work surface and cut into bite-size pieces.
- Use a gnocchi board or a fork to imprint a pattern on each piece.
- For the topping: dice raw sweet potato, deep-fry at 180°C / 350°F until crisp, and salt.
- Boil the gnocchi in 1%-salted water until they float (about 1 minute).
- In a frying pan, heat salted butter and sage until fragrant.
- Add a splash of pasta water to emulsify, then add the cooked gnocchi and toss to coat.
- Plate and garnish with the fried sweet potato chips.
