Beet Gnocchi Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Beets

   Boil the beets in a pot of water until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Once cooked, let them cool, peel, and then mash them until smooth.

2. 2

   Make the Gnocchi Dough

   In a bowl, combine the mashed beets, flour, egg, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If it's too sticky, add more flour as needed.

3. 3

   Shape the Gnocchi

   On a floured surface, roll the dough into long ropes, then cut into bite-sized pieces. Use a fork to create ridges on each piece.

4. 4

   Cook the Gnocchi

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

5. 5

   Prepare the Brown Butter Sauce

   In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the pumpkin seeds and cook until the butter is golden brown and the seeds are toasted.

6. 6

   Combine and Serve

   Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet with the brown butter sauce. Toss gently to coat. Serve topped with diced apple and crumbled feta cheese.
