Ingredients
Instructions
-
Add potatoes to a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain well and put back in the hot pot.
-
Mash potatoes with a potato masher or ricer until no lumps remain.
-
Add tapioca flour and 1 ½ cups of chickpea flour and mix into the potatoes to form a soft dough. If it is sticky add a few more spoonfuls of chickpea flour (up to 2 cups). Roll into a tight ball and divide into quarters.
-
Using floured fingers, roll the dough into long ropes approximately 2cm wide.
-
Slice each rope into sections 2.5cm long. Repeat with remaining dough.
-
Take each piece of dough and roll it along the back of a fork to add ridges.
-
Set the gnocchi aside while you boil a large pot of salted water.
-
Drop the gnocchi pieces into the boiling water and cook for 4 minutes or until risen to the surface. As they rise, remove each piece with a slotted spoon.
-
Serve with sauce or fried in a hot pan with olive oil if you prefer crispy gnocchi.
User Reviews
I love this gluten-free recipe. I did not need to use the entire quantity of flour, but this will vary based on how wet your potatoes are.
