With a beautiful green color, here are the broccoli gnocchi
Preparing broccoli gnocchi, without potatoes, is a truly original idea. Here's how they do it with the easy recipe.
The idea of preparing potato-free gnocchi is truly original. To do this you can really use a lot of ingredients. Today we offer you broccoli gnocchi, ideal to prepare during the cold season when they are in season. To make them, three ingredients are sufficient: in addition to broccoli, flour and eggs will be needed.
The dressing of the potato-free broccoli gnocchi is at your discretion. From the simplest butter and sage to the tastiest and most substantial with cream or gorgonzola (or a combination of both) you are spoiled for choice. Let's see how they are done together.
How to prepare the broccoli gnocchi recipe
- First, remove the broccoli florets and wash them under running water. Then put them to cook in abundant salted water for 15 minutes . They will have to be tender if skewered with a fork.
- Once this is done, drain and let them dry (as well as cool) in a colander.
- Reduce them to a puree by mashing them with a fork or potato masher then transfer them to a bowl.
- Add the flour and the egg and knead first with a spoon and then by hand, transferring everything to the pastry board.
- Form loaves by rolling portions of dough between your hands then cut them into pieces of about 1 cm . You can form the gnocchi of the size you prefer and, if desired, create the characteristic lines by passing them on the prongs of a fork or on the rigagnocchi.
- Once ready, boil them in plenty of salted water until they come to the surface, then put them in a pan with the chosen sauce.

We advise you to consume the freshly made broccoli gnocchi. You can at most leave them a few hours on the floured pastry board waiting for cooking.
