Sweet Potato Gnocchi

1kg sweet potato

2 cups flour

6 cloves garlic

Handful walnuts

1/2 cup Oil

Large bunch Parsley

Salt

Method:

• Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork and bake them for 35 minutes until soft on the inside.

• Cut them in half and scoop the insides out in a bowl.

• Add a generous pinch of salt and gradually mix in 1-1 1/2 cups of flour, mixing with a fork initially, then kneading on a well-floured flat surface.

• Keep adding flour until you get a soft, non-sticky playdoh consistency.

• Divide the dough into 4 even parts and roll each part into relatively thin ropes and cut each dough rope into small gnocchi pieces. Coat them in a thin layer of flour.

• To make the sauce, add all the sauce ingredients in a blender and blend until a smooth, thick sauce is formed.

• Cook the gnocchi in a pot of salted boiling water until they float up to the surface.

• Add a generous amount of your sauce to a hot pan along with a ladleful of gnocchi cooking water. Stir together until a thick pasta sauce is formed.

• Toss the cooked gnocchi with the sauce until well coated and serve.
