Ingredients:
– 1 lb of fresh spinach
– 2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 egg
– 1 cup of gluten-free flour
– 1 tsp of sea salt
– 1/2 tsp of black pepper
– 1/4 cup of olive oil
– 3 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
1. In a large pot, boil the spinach until it’s wilted and tender. Drain the spinach and set it aside to cool.
2. In the same pot, add the diced potatoes and boil them until they’re soft. Drain the potatoes and let them cool for a few minutes.
3. Mash the potatoes with a fork or a potato masher until they’re smooth. Add the cooled spinach and mix well.
4. Add the egg, gluten-free flour, sea salt, and black pepper to the mixture and mix well until you form a smooth dough.
5. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and roll each one into a long log-shaped piece.
6. Cut the logs into small bite-sized pieces and press the pieces gently with a fork to create a classic gnocchi look. Set aside.
7. In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for a few seconds until fragrant.
8. Add the gnocchetti to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
9. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the gnocchetti and cook for another minute until melted.
10. Serve hot with your favorite sauce or toppings.
