In this recipe, we’re going to replace the potato with pumpkin for a twist on the classic dish. Pumpkin gnocchi is surprisingly easy to make, and the addition of pumpkin gives it a subtle sweetness that pairs perfectly with the shrimp and coconut sauce.

To make the gnocchi, you’ll need:

– 2 cups of pumpkin puree
– 3 cups of all-purpose flour

– Salt and pepper

Start by roasting a small pumpkin in the oven until it’s tender. Scoop out the flesh and mash it into a puree. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, flour, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until it forms a dough.

Next, roll out the dough on a floured surface until it’s about 1/2 inch thick. Cut the dough into small dumplings using a knife or a cookie cutter. You can also roll the dough into long ropes and cut it into small pieces. Place the gnocchi on a floured surface and let them dry out for about 30 minutes.

While the gnocchi is drying, you can start preparing the shrimp and coconut sauce. You’ll need:

– 1 lb. of peeled and deveined shrimp
– 1 can of coconut milk
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 tbsp. of olive oil
– Salt and pepper

In a large skillet, sauté the onions and garlic in olive oil until they’re soft and fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook them until they’re pink and opaque. Pour in the can of coconut milk and let everything simmer until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Now it’s time to cook the gnocchi. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook them until they float to the surface, which should take about 3-4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the gnocchi from the water and add them to the shrimp and coconut sauce. Gently toss everything together until the gnocchi is coated in the sauce.

Serve the pumpkin gnocchi with shrimp and coconut sauce immediately, garnished with chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro. The sweetness of the pumpkin gnocchi pairs perfectly with the rich and creamy coconut sauce, and the addition of shrimp adds a pop of flavor and texture.
