Description
Gnocchi (English pronunciation of gnocchi ), which are small Italian dumplings usually oval in shape, which are made from semolina, potatoes, cheese, curd, spinach, pumpkin and even stale bread or bread crumbs. Gnocchi is traditionally served with tomato sauce, pesto sauce, melted butter, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Inspired me to this dish, the recipe from "Everyday Italian" by Giada De Laurentiis. However, the program used sweet potatoes and riccota. I decided to substitute sweet potatoes for regular, and riccota - to sour cream. It was very tasty!

Divide the dough into 4 parts.
Each part roll out into a sausage with a diameter of cm 2-2,5. And cut the sausage into pieces with a width of 2 see also This is the gnocchi:) In the original gnocchi recipe that gave a nice shape with a fork. For this we need to wet the fork with water and hold her gnocchi, that he curled up... you Know, not very clear... But I never did
In the already boiling water sent batches of the gnocchi. Many don't, can stick together, they're freely floating in the water. After surfacing, cook for 4-5 minutes.
