Ingredients

The following ingredients have 3 Servings
  • 100 grams all purpose flour
  • 100 grams potatoes
  • 3-4 sun dried tomatoes
  • 10-12 black olives
  • A handful of Rocket lettuce or Rucola
  • 2-3 tsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • Salt

Instruction

  • Boil the potatoes. While they are still hot, push them through a metal seive.
  • Add the flour immediately and fold the ingredients together to form a dough. This step will take about 10 -12 mins. But do not overdo the kneading.
  • Next divide the dough into 4-5 portions. Roll each potion into a long rope of about 1 CM diameter.
  • Slightly flatten the dough ropes. Cut them into inch sized pieces.
  • Use a fork to mark and shape each gnocchi.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add salt. Throw in the gnocchi after 2 mins.
  • The gnocchi will be cooked when it floats to the top. Wait for 20-30 seconds. Remove from the boiling water and keep aside.
  • As the gnocchi starts to float to the top, heat a skillet. Add the minced garlic and chilli flakes.
  • Once the spices turn fragrant, toss in the gnocchi. Toast till they start to brown.
  • Remove the gnocchi from the flame. Add the chopped sun dried tomatoes, olives to the skillet and toss everything together.
  • Add the greens, give it quick stir and serve immediately.
