Gnocchi

Pesto Sauce

Shrimp & Sun-dried Tomatoes

Method

Gnocchi Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and allow to cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Make the Dough

    Peel the potatoes and mash them until smooth. Combine the mashed potatoes with flour, egg, and salt in a bowl. Mix until a dough forms, then knead gently on a floured surface until smooth.

  3. 3

    Shape the Gnocchi

    Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each piece into a long rope about 1 cm thick. Cut into bite-sized pieces and press with a fork to create ridges.

Pesto Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine basil leaves, pine nuts, grated Parmesan, garlic, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth, adding more olive oil if necessary to reach desired consistency.

Shrimp & Sun-dried Tomatoes Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add shrimp and cook until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 6

    Add Sun-dried Tomatoes

    Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and black pepper, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine Everything

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and toss with the pesto sauce, shrimp, and sun-dried tomatoes.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Plate the gnocchi and garnish with additional grated Parmesan if desired. Serve hot.
