$1 Herby Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Pretty novel little recipe! Not sure when I'd make again, but glad I gave it a go!

It went so hard and gummy :/ my stomach hurts rn and flavor is not so incredible :c sad

The gnocchi were really easy to make and they tasted amazing! I did however replace the parsley with my homemade pesto sauce and I also squeezed a bit of lemon on top for more acidity. Really easy to make but next time I’ll use regular potatoes as mine turned out a bit too sweet 😊

I made my sweet potato gnocchi with harissa paste, canellini beans, and halloumi! YUM! So easy to make the gnocchi! Next time I'll add some kale :)

Used tomato sauce bc I have no herbs tasted great

Love love love! It will definitely be a go to. I added some freshly shredded Parmesan and it was great. Surprisingly not as messy as anticipated when making the gnocchi. Some of my potatoes didn’t cook in the oven with the time frame so I tossed them in the microwave for a bit and that made it easier to scoop out

Love this recipe- made it a few times and is delicious although the making of the dough is very messy as sweet potato has a much higher water content than normal potatoes so the dough comes out much stickier than normal gnocchi!

It was easy to make and tasted amazing i added bacon and it tasted good as well

So yummy and pretty easy, although kinda messy because we needed much more flour than called for. A good tip would be to let the sweet potato cool before combining it with flour. Otherwise, this is a new favorite!

Amazing

Just writing as Im eating. It tastes great. Funny flavour combination between the sweetness of the potato and the sauce. Accidentally made so much I will be eating it the next 2 days. Not complaining tho.

I didn't read the directions and peeled the potato so I just diced and boiled it instead. This may have caused the potato to be too moist because it was very sticky and required much more flour than called for. I used 3 ladle fulls of water and an immersion blender to get a good consistency. The sauce was really good but I think I might have under cooked the gnocchi because it was very chewy. This could also be due to the extra amount of flour required to make the dough not be sticky. My husband and daughter liked it. May try again and add some other ingredients to the finished dish (like sausage or chicken)

Great, cheap, and yummy recipe, but one VERY important tip. You need to let the potatoes rest in the fridge to cool before scooping them. If you don’t, it will be a sticky mess unless you add loads and loads of flour.

I needed quite a lot of flour but it turned out great and the sauce is also great

I made this with my 9 year old near Valentine's day. We made mistakes along the way, but it still came together in the end. I needed to add extra flour to the sweet potatoes and use a small food processor for the sauce instead of my big blender. It's not a fast recipe, but it was delicious! I hope he remembers it for years to come!

Really yummy and simple!

Yum

I made a bit more dough since my mom insisted so I sill have like 600g of dough in the fridge 😅. Since I made 1.5 kgs of dough it was a bit hard to knead but it was a fun first experience. I did not know that I should wait for the potatoes to rest and be cold before making the dough. Since I did not wait it was quite sticky and I used more flour and they were a bit hard. But still good nonetheless

I’m a beginner chef so I’m grateful how easy and cheap of a meal this was while being super delicious! I wasn’t sure if I was doing things correctly but it still came out super amazing. Perfect consistency, just like original gnocchi but I like the flavor and health benefits of this much more than original gnocchi. I did make a bit of mess making this though but that might just be user error 🙈 Feta cheese and lemon was a great add too! I subbed walnuts for cashews.

This one really hit the gnocchi spot! Great consistency and taste (but I did have to cook them for a bit longer after they floated up). I'm glad to say that it works with other greens too, I didn't have parsley on hand and spinach did the trick too! (I have to recommend topping with cherry tomatoes and parmesan cheese 😋)

Loved this dish! Mine was like tteokbokki, and the parsley made it very herby and wholesome!! I made it with my aunt (she made it mostly) and we both loved it! Can add walnut and banana.

added some dill to the sauce and sautted mushrooms + shredded mozarella and sprouts :-p i liked it :-)

It was very delicious

It came out awesome! It took me a long time to make the dough because i made triple the original quantity, but that’s okay. I kept some of it uncooked to boil easily whenever needed. I generally love gnocchi and i’m very excited to have made it myself !! This recipe is easily rookie-cook friendly and i’d recommend it to anyone who has the time and is in the mood for some good food. (I topped it with cheese mix instead of feta for preference reasons)

Delicious! I made it for me and my parents and we all loved it! Instead of the pesto sauce that was recommended I made a rue with butter and oat milk, and added garlic pesto. The dough took me a bit longer to make but I usually take a while to cook things when it's my first time making them. Made this to enter the challenge but now I will definitely make it again!! Good luck to everyone :)

I absolutely loved this! I bulked the sauce up a little with leftover cashew pulp and added mushrooms and tomatoes

Really easy to make and so tasty! Great that you only need a few ingredients too!

Making the gnocchi took a long time. This is not a fast dinner recipe. However, I found it very therapeutic. I used a lot more flour than the recipe called for. Kneading the dough is fun. Also, everyone in the family enjoyed it, even my sweet potato hating husband. The gnocchi doesn't taste like sweet potatoes, but it does have a subtle sweetness to it. The sauce is simple and easy to make and has a great flavor. This would be a great base for adding other veggies and/or meats too. And what a great budget meal that's also healthy! Also, to save some research for you, 190c is 375F

Very tasty combination of flavors. Like the nuttiness of the sause.

I am 15 years old and I made it for me, my brother and my parents 😁 It was lovely

I added crispy chickpeas on top and it was very delicious 😋

I made this the first time I saw it. I was 16 when I made it and I am still and beginner at cooking My whole family loved it and it was amazing!!

I actually made this a year ago and it was really tasty and easy to make and I have a sweet potato in the fridge right now so I guess I’ll be making it again this week!

First time making and tasting gnocchi! I paired it with a camembert cream sauce with broccoli, minced beef and, of course onions and lots of garlic! Probably could've paired it with a wine instead of a cider but I have a lot of dough left over so next batch will be with wine and blue cheese sauce. Generous amount of salt is advised. I thought i did but always add a bit more! Great recipe, very tasty!

Very easy and delicious!!! Will make it again!

I have to use more flour next time they came out what to sticky but apart from that easy to make and very tasty. I used parmesan instead of feta.

I used parmesan instead of feta. Nice.

I found adding parmesan or gran padano at the end was the best bit. I also added salmon for a balanced meal but thats up to you 😋, either way the gnocchi and sauce were delicious I need to batch cook this more often... I had a gnocchi shaper and wanted too try it, honestly just cut it, it made it look pretty but wasnt worth the extra 20 mins haha

So simple to make, and the sauce was delicious. Had a lovely kick from the garlic and lemon. Definitely making it again!

It was so good. 🤯 I'm always up for some potatoes. 🥔

It took a while to make but the result was great! I loved how filling it was and the recipe made loads of leftovers!

I never had gnocchi before, these were good but kept sticking to each other if anyone has any tips to make them not stick to each other please let me know

Delicious! Made this without the walnuts.

Idk if I did something wrong, but this is not gnocchi, this is potato dumplings, and it tasted just like potato dumplings. Gnocchi has egg in it alongside the flour.

Es war ok, man kann es essen aber die Gnocchi waren recht geschmacklos. Die Soße ist nett, reißt es aber leider nicht raus.

I cooked the sweet-potato in a pot instead of using an oven. Took a while to get the dough non-sticky enough. Also used a fork to press the sliced pieces into desired shape. Definitely leave it to float for 3 or more minutes, like others have reccomended. Have decided to take half of the raw gnocchi and freeze for later meals. Sauce works excellent with the gnocchi! Will make again

Pretty alright with some butter, pepper, possibly pesto. They do feel a bit like play-doh, but still enjoyed them. —- Tried them a second time. Potato can be done in the microwave. Fried them golden brown and slightly crispy in butter, added pepper, some Parmesan on top, and rocket with olive oil did the trick for me to enjoy this.

I made it but I don’t know what I did wrong bc it turned out really hard and insipid. The sause was pretty tasty tho

Love this recipe. Quick and simple and you can use the gnocchi with different sauces for a range of different variations.

It was a lot of work and the sweet potato I used needed a lot more time. At some point me and my fellow diners got so hungry/frustrated that I threw the hard core that hadn't cooked yet in the microwave to just be able to start on the dough. The result however was very pleasing. I did mess around with the proportions a little to make it to my liking and added a little gran padano as I'm not eating vegan and it was just there in the fridge anyway and left the feta cheese out. (This was recommended in the reel as a topping). Personally I would also make the gnocchi even smaller (divide the dough in 8ths maybe and then roll/cut) for a more pleasant eating experience texturally. However I did really enjoy the result, it was a lot better than I expected and the leftovers were just as good the next day. Will for sure make again, but I might cut the sweet potatoes in half before cooking or take more time for that first step.

So easy and delish!

A lot of work to get the dough to the proper consistency. It took about 3 cups of flour. They don't taste like sweet potato at all. The sauce is a must to make it worth the work.

What temperature should I bake my sweet potatoes at? There isn’t one listed in the directions.

It tasted good, but I had a really hard time getting the sweet potatoes to a consistency I could work with. I might try again with different tools.

We doubled it and added a decent amount of salt and pepper + onion and garlic powder. I would say the serve guesses are not super accurate, it would probably serve 4 if using doubled numbers. Took a long time but 100% worth it. Also definitely keep the gnocchi in for an extra 2-3 mins after floating like others have recommended 💖

Based on feedback I read in the comments, I boiled the gnocchi for 2-3 minutes after they were all floating to ensure that they were fully cooked and not chewy, and it turned out perfectly! They had the texture of thick pasta. I also modified the sauce slightly (just because I know what I like). I added 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, 1 tbsp basil, and the juice of 1/2 lemon before blending. I loved it, but again, the sauce modifications were to my personal taste. Will make again!

It was very tasty. Had to use way more flour than the recipe called for, but in the end; delicious. Added parmesan on top. Made it 10 times better.

It tastes like sticky pasta

Gnocchi were a bit undercooked even though they were all "floating" and it took more than 1.5 cup of flour to get non sticky dough. Maybe that was the reason. Other than that the taste was ok. I added a bit of parmigiano on the top.

High oven heat is important to make potato soft

If you don't like the ingredients of the souce adjust it to you preferences.

Pistache Pesto, beetje Feta en water mee blenden tomaatjes mee bakken

Do not add a full bunch of parsley to the sauce, it will be super nasty. Also no oven temp listed

parsley doesnt scale well

Instead of walnuts added non-salted pistachio (had it at home) + added sunflower seeds and cannabis seeds. Super tasty sauce. And gnocchi was also very nice, not too mushy.

Tasted great! Very filling

long recipe but definitely worth it

It was easy to make and it was delicious

Short story? My boyfriend got seconds. Which means it was good. Was it what I meant to make, no. For some reason because I’ve watched a cooking show once I feel like I am a pro chef - not only did I buy yams instead of sweet potato, I also looked at the recipe twice, took it as a suggestion and didn’t do ANYTHING correctly. The fact that I was able to make something comparable to what it was supposed to be must mean that this recipe is just simple enough and just detailed enough for a disaster chef to make it - so yeah if you read the recipe I’m sure it would be amazing.

I did double ingredients for 6 . I used fresh basil with walnuts. Also I added pepper in the sauce. If you do double ingredients DO NOT double the oil for the sauce.

Making the gnocchi was tough but so worth it!

This meal is amazing, it took about an hour and a half but was totally worth it. I put feta cheese and salt when I finished and it is so delicious.

Pretty easy to make, I used fresh basil and pumpkin seeds instead of parsley and walnuts because it was all I had on hand and the sauce turned out pretty nice.

1 cup of flour per sweet potato (let cool after smashing before making dough) Sauce: - cherry tomatoes - basil - olive oil - 1 shallot - 1/2 a whole garlic roasted - Jack’s secret Italian seasoning blend

This recipe wasn't for me. It took a really long time to prepare and make. And you couldn't taste the sweet potato at all in the end. I don't know if I mad a mistake, or it is just how it's supposed to taste. Really disappointed, as it was a lot a work. Maybe if you consider making this, try the pesto at first to see if you like it. And then try the whole recipe.

It was delicious! I did a bad job cutting the individual gnocchi so they were pretty misshapen but the taste was divine. I love the parsley pesto.

Oven 400 degrees at least 45 mins - 1 hour for sweet potatoes 3 sweet potatoes = 4 servings Added basil + Parmesan + lemon to sauce

Replaced parsley by spinach and walnut by nuts. So goooood !

The instructions and recipe could be clearer on some points, I really depend on specifics, but I managed to do okay in the end using my gut.

It’d be nice to know what temperature I’m supposed to bake the sweet potatoes at

It took a long time to make this. I used tomatoes in my sauce just like one of the other notes. I also used too many cloves of garlic.

Covered It In Pesto R.I.P

Very easy and tasty

Absolutely love this recipe!! I added a bit too much lemon (he adds lemon on his Instagram video) but other than that the process was very straightforward, and it’s wayyyy too delicious. Definitely gunna make this again soon. Thank you for showing me a new way to use sweet potato.

Good recipe I would definitely recommend it, I tweaked the sauce a bit with basil, cherry tomatoes, food cream (I don’t know the right English term) and some spices. And don’t throw out the peels from the potato’s, but scrape out almost all the meat, leave a little on there so it isn’t paper thin, but put them on a tray sprinkle some flaky salt, throw them in the oven at low heat and you have some delicious sweet crispy chips. I figured it would be good and it was REALLY GOOD!!

I cannot seem to get the dough into one solid mass If anyone has advice I would really appreciate it

Gerne auch mit Bratensoße und der aceto Balsamico-Honig Variante , kann man nicht so viel von essen

Honestly one of my favourite meals!!! Would highly recommend

Took longer than anticipated as you have to let the sweet potato cook before making the dough

you can add a few more spices to the sauce like oregano, basil, black pepper but otherwise it’s such a good recipe

It took me a really long time but tasted great!

So good and fun to make

This dish is incredibly easy to do and tastes great. Put the sweet potatoes in the oven in 225 Celsius for 45 minutes for it to be done

Cooks well with oat flour instead of wheat too!

It was great I put chicken in it and it was even better so 10/10

A different recipe I looked at baked the sweet potatoes at 400°F for an hour. I'm trying the same, for 45 mins.

Awesome recepie, really simple to make, but soooo delicious 😍

He doesn’t mention it on here but in his video on Instagram he added lemon juice to the sauce just an fyi. Also, I’m allergic to tree nuts and substituted white beans for the walnuts and it was still creamy and tasty.

Pretty good dish to change up the home menu! Totally going to cook this again. Ps: we bakes the potatoes it at 200-220c for 45 minutes after some trial and error

Absolutely awesome!! Thank you so much :D
