Gnocchi Ingredients
Method
Preparing the Rabbit
Braised Rabbit
In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat a bit of oil over medium heat. Season the rabbit pieces with salt and pepper. Brown the rabbit on all sides for about 10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Combine and Braise
Return the rabbit to the pot, add the natural jus, and bring to a simmer. Cover and braise for about 1.5 hours or until the rabbit is tender.
Add Peas
In the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the English peas to the pot.
Making the Gnocchi
Prepare the Potatoes
Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth.
Mix the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, egg, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour.
Shape the Gnocchi
On a floured surface, roll out portions of the dough into long ropes about ½ inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces and press with a fork to create ridges.
Cook the Gnocchi
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gnocchi in batches until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Finishing Touches
Combine Gnocchi and Rabbit
In a large pan, combine the braised rabbit mixture with the cooked gnocchi. Drizzle with truffle oil and toss gently to combine.
Serve
Plate the gnocchi with the rabbit mixture, sprinkle with shaved Romano cheese, and serve hot.
