Seville Orange and Rosemary Gnocchi Les Fougere's

"Update. I made this at home on the weekend and was amazed at how *easy* they were. the active time was actually 15 minutes!! And *delicious*. They suggest serving it with a ragout or stew, alternatively simply tossed in butter with some pancetta and grated parmegiano reggiano. cooking time includes time to cook potatoes"

directions

  • Bake the potatoes in their skins, let rest until cool enough to handle then spoon out flesh and rice it. (i just use a potatoe masher with the square holes).
  • Mound the riced potato onto a floured board. Make a well in the center and add the eggs, egg yok, olive oil, rosemary, marmalade and zests.
  • Using a fork, stir all the ingredients in the well together, incorporating the potato bit by bit. Gradually add just enough flour to form a tender dough and knead gently and briefly to form a ball.
  • Divide dough into quarters. Roll each quarter in a 3/4 inch rope and cut into pieces on the diagnol. Throw into boiling salted water. As soon as gnocchi rises to the top they are done, strain and toss with butter.
  • Either serve with a ladle of ragout, stew or fresh parmesan and a garnish of fresh rosemary and orange zest.

  1. Superbly flavoursome and one of those recipes that's really fun to make, and certainly also very easy to make. Loved the citrusy flavour. If you love citrus flavours, you'll love these. My only change was to sneak in a teaspoon of minced garlic and a sprinkling of sage and thyme together with the rosemary in step 2 (always just gotta add a few extra herbs and garlic if I can see the opportunity to do so). These gnocchi would be delicious with a pasta sauce, but my preference is to eat them exactly as MarraMamba suggested, simply with some crispy pancetta or bacon. Eaten that way, the wonderful citrus flavours really have the chance to be the star. :) Great recipe, which I know I'll be making again and again. Thank you so much for sharing it. Made for Newest Zaar Tag.

http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/527607/cookswithcattitude.jpg I am a middle aged foodie who has had the luxury of living all over the world except asia. Lived in or grew up in Nigeria, Kenya, Chicago, Russia,and haiti. born in New Zealand, brother born in Austria and many more. I have chronic medication resistant depression after 10 years on anti depressants that worked well but would stop working after a year or two, so now do my best at home living on disabilty. Not a bad thing, many have far worse health issues but i have been able to concentrate on food/cooking. My main passions are my cats. I live in the woods and somehow many starving strays or "dumps" have found the message babies who passed on left in the woods saying "suck lives at xxxx road. Most arrive sick and/or starving. Right now i have 2 that arrived with feline herpes and their attendant 2ndry bacterial infections but are doing beautifully. One old man who was going to be euthanized bc a lady who found him as a stray was moving and didnt want him...well he was a biter and rather grumpy who was in ICU for 3 days with a deadly gut infection which was fixed but he left with a diagnosis of diabetes. 3 months on insulin and finally diet controlled and he caught the herpes virus, respiratory symptom version and turned into a cuddler. Butterscotch must think "why didnt i figure out this cuddle stuff was great before i got sick!" Doing wonderfully even though he has bouts. he and the other kids are my babies. Sadly Butterscotch died of Lymphatic cancer in winter of 2008. A year before Big Boy arrived in my life, starving and weak. Full of affection he jumped into my arms and stayed, turns out he has FIV (cat hiv) so he needs to be watched closely. I love him dearly <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Stockingswapcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/cookbookswap.jpg"> <img src="http://www.caymandesigns.com/foodothers/fallswap.jpg">
