Sweet Potato Pesto Gnocchi

Prep Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato
  • Pinch salt and pepper
  • Dash mixed herbs
  • 1/3 cup gluten free flour
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Olive oil for cooking
  • Handful fresh spinach
  • Sacla Free From Pesto

Instructions

  • To make the gnocchi, combine the sweet potato, seasonings and flour and mix until well combined and you're left with a dough mixture.
  • Spread a little flour onto a cutting board and roll out the dough to form a long sausage shape. Cut into small thumb sized pieces.
  • To create the rolled effect, press each piece of gnocchi against a fork and roll towards you.
  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Add in the gnocchi and allow to cook until they start to float to the surface, then scoop them out with a slotted spoon and place onto a side plate.
  • Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan and add in the gnocchi and crushed garlic. Sauté so that they start to lightly crisp and then stir through the spinach and a few spoonfuls of the pesto.
  • Once the spinach has wilted, serve onto plates and enjoy!
