A delicious and easy-to-make gnocchi recipe featuring sweet potatoes, enriched with a brown butter sauce and crispy chorizo for added flavor.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 1 lb sweet potatoes (roughly 2 medium)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup ricotta
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 oz chorizo (casing removed and diced (optional))
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 1 sprig rosemary (stem removed)
  • 1 teaspoon flaky salt

To serve

  • Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions 

  • Roast sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes, then scoop flesh into a bowl.
  • Mix sweet potato with ricotta, parmesan, salt, and nutmeg. Add flour gradually until dough is just combined and manageable.
  • Shape dough into logs, cut into 1-inch pieces, and transfer to a tray.
  • Cook chorizo until crispy; set aside. In the same pan, melt butter to make brown butter, then add garlic, rosemary, and flaky salt.
  • Boil gnocchi until they float, then toss in brown butter with garlic and rosemary. Add crispy chorizo, top with grated parmesan, and serve.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon before serving.
