SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI WITH BROWN BUTTER, CRISPY PANCETTA AND SAGE
This recipe puts a little twist on the classic potato gnocchi using sweet potato instead. I love its natural sweetness and beautiful color. I then coat the pillowy pieces with a rich, nutty and salty brown butter. (I felt that tomato sauce might be a bit too acidic and mask the sweetness.) To top it all off: crispy nuggets of pancetta and fried sage leaves.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Poke holes all over each sweet potato with a fork, then rub all over with oil. Place on a baking sheet and roast until tender when pierced with a fork, about 40 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then remove and discard the skins. Quarter each sweet potato and pass a few pieces at a time through a ricer, landing the fluffy strands in a medium bowl; discard any stringy bits. Cover with plastic wrap until ready to mix. (Alternative method: Remove the skins after baking then grate the sweet potatoes on the large holes of a box grater.)
- Bring a large wide pot of water to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, whisk to combine the flour and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Create a well in the center. Add the riced sweet potatoes and egg. Gently fold with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be sure not to overwork the dough!
- Transfer the dough to a generously floured work surface. Bring the dough together with your hands, adding up to 1/4 cup flour, until the dough is just slightly sticky and can be patted into a disk. Let rest on the work surface, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- Cut the dough into 4 equal wedges. Working with one wedge at a time, roll the dough into a 1/2-inch-thick log on a lightly floured surface. Cut each log into about thirty pieces. (The gnocchi will be slightly sticky in the center.) Transfer to a baking sheet and cover with a dish towel.
- Cook the pancetta, stirring occasionally, in a medium skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon. Remove the skillet from the heat and reserve the skillet with the fat in it.
- Generously season the boiling water with salt. Reduce the heat to medium and carefully drop a batch of gnocchi into the water and cook until they begin to float; remove to a serving platter with a slotted spoon. Repeat with the remaining gnocchi.
- Heat the reserved skillet and fat over medium heat. Add the butter and cook, stirring occasionally with a silicone spatula, until brown flecks appear, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the sage and gently fry in the brown butter until just crispy, about 1 minute.
- Pour the melted butter on the cooked gnocchi. Top with the sage leaves and crispy pancetta pieces. Sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan, if desired. Enjoy while warm.
SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI RECIPE BY TASTY
Gnocchi are something you probably order all the time at restaurants but never think about making from scratch. Well, now's the time to start. These lightened-up homemade gnocchi call for sweet potato in place of regular potato. The sweet potato is mashed with flour, egg, and Parmesan and boiled into little dumplings. Then, the gnocchi get tossed in a simple sauce of butter and sage until just golden.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
- Prick the sweet potato with a fork several times and bake for 40 minutes (or microwave for 5 minutes).
- Allow potato to cool at least 5 minutes before peeling skin off.
- In a large bowl, mash potato with masher or fork until smooth.
- Add parmesan cheese, egg, and flour. Knead the dough until it is firm and no longer sticky, adding flour as needed, forming a ball with the dough.
- Divide the dough into four equal parts. Take one part and roll it out into a long rope, about a 1-inch (2 ½ cm) wide.
- Slice into ½-inch (1 cm) rectangles and set aside.
- Using an overturned fork, slide each gnocchi over the fork prongs so they become serrated in a corkscrew shape.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the gnocchi. Boil until the gnocchi float to the top, about 1-2 minutes. Drain in a colander.
- In a pan over medium heat, melt butter and add sage. Simmer for 1 minute without letting butter burn.
- Add gnocchi to pan with the sage and butter, tossing until lightly golden.
- Top with more Parmesan cheese.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- For the Gnocchi: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Pierce the sweet potato with a fork. Bake the sweet potatoes until tender and fully cooked, between 40 to 55 minutes depending on size. Cool slightly. Cut in half and scoop the flesh into a large bowl. Mash the sweet potatoes and transfer to a large measuring cup to make sure the sweet potatoes measure about 2 cups. Transfer the mashed sweet potatoes back to the large bowl. Add the ricotta cheese, salt, cinnamon, and pepper and blend until well mixed. Add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time until a soft dough forms. Lightly flour a work surface and place the dough in a ball on the work surface. Divide the dough into 6 equal balls. Roll out each ball into a 1-inch wide rope. Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces. Roll the gnocchi over the tines of a fork. Transfer the formed gnocchi to a large baking sheet. Continue with the remaining gnocchi.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the gnocchi in 3 batches and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 5 to 6 minutes. Drain the gnocchi using a slotted spoon onto a baking sheet. Tent with foil to keep warm and continue with the remaining gnocchi.
- For the Brown Butter sauce: While the gnocchi are cooking melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. When the butter has melted add the sage leaves. Continue to cook, swirling the butter occasionally, until the foam subsides and the milk solids begin to brown. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the cinnamon, maple syrup, salt, and pepper. Careful, the mixture will bubble up. Gently stir the mixture. When the bubbles subside, toss the cooked gnocchi in the brown butter. Transfer the gnocchi to a serving dish and serve immediately.
SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI WITH SAGE BUTTER
Making your own gnocchi is not as difficult or as time-consuming as you may think. Don't be afraid to try it! Sweet potatoes, a favorite Mexican ingredient, give the dough for these gnocchi a subtle sweetness and added nutrients (sweet potatoes are rich in fiber and vitamins A, B, and C). A simple butter-sage sauce is all you need to finish off this satisfying dish.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- 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.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Working in 2 batches, cook the gnocchi in the boiling water for 4 minutes, or until they float and are tender. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a platter.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the garlic and cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant. Add the sage and cook for 2 minutes, until crisp. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the butter sauce over the gnocchi, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and serve.

- Pierce the potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave each potato on high for about 2 minutes per side (depending on the size of your potatoes) turning every 2 minutes, until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, allow to cool.
- Once they are cool enough to handle, the skins should peel off easy, add the potato to a bowl. Mash the potatoes well, or run through a potato ricer or food mill. Add the ricotta, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg and salt, mix well. Turn the potato mix onto a floured surface and use your hands to mix in the flour a little at a time while slightly kneading. You may not use all the flour, the dough just needs to not be sticky and hold together.
- Take a golf ball size piece of dough and roll out into a long cigar to ¾ inch (2 ½ cm) thick. The dough will be delicate, if it breaks, just roll it back together and do it again. Dust the rolls of dough with a little flour, this will prevent them from sticking. Cut 1 inch (3 cm) pieces using a pastry cutter or knife.

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Poke a few holes in the sweet potatoes with a fork, and then bake them for 40-50 minutes or until tender. You’ll know they’re done when a fork can be pressed into the center rather easily. Set aside to let cool enough for you to handle them easily.
- Heat a pot of salted water to a boil. Add in the gnocchi and let cook for a couple minutes. Once the gnocchi floats to the surface of the water, let it boil for 30 more seconds and then remove it from the water using a slotted spoon.
- Add the butter to a large skillet over medium heat. Melt and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to bubble. Add in the garlic, stir, and cook for one additional minute.
