Description

Healthy, tasty and really easy to make broccoli rabe gnocchi. You will need 10 mins.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 700gr boiled broccoli rabe
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp grated parmigiano
  • 10 anchovies in oil or preserved with salt
  • 200 gr flour ( you can use potato starch if you want to make it gluten free)
  • 70gr butter
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Squeeze the excess water from the boiled broccoli and put them into the food processor with the eggs a couple of anchovies, a spinkle of salt and pepper and turn on until you get a creamy dough.
  2. Add the flour and the parmigiano and turn on again the processor until all the ingredients are mixed evenly. The dough should be enough thick to be scooped. If it’s still a little liquid (it depends on the water in the veggie) add a tablespoon of flour.
  3. Bring some water to a boil in a large saucepan to cook the gnocchi.
  4. In the mean time melt the butter in a pan (on low heat) with the remaining anchovies, and crush them with a wooden spatula to mix them evenly with the butter.
  5. Put the broccoli dough into a pastry bag, cut the edge and when the water comes to a boil squeeze little gnocchi out from the bag into the pan. You can also scoop the gnocchi with a teaspoon.
  6. Cook for about 5 minutes (they will float when they are cooked).
  7. Drain and put them into the pan with the butter. Stir for a couple of minutes and add some cooking water to make a little cream. (this trick is useful to avoid too much butter).
  8. Serve with a sprinkle of parmigiano and pepper.
