Gnocchi With Bacon Pumpkin And Parmesan

Posted 2015-01-20 by finyfollow

Gnocchi is a versatile food, generally made with potatoes.

It is freely available in supermarkets. Make sure you buy a good one as the they are soft and melt in your mouth.

In this recipe I have teamed the gnocchi with browned bacon, cooked pumpkin pieces, and a creamy sauce and this is like teaming slightly sweet (pumpkin) with salty (bacon) which gives a very nice result.

Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients
400 - 500 g [link http://reviewclue.com.au/gnocchi-by-ciccarese/ gnocchi]
500 g butternut pumpkin, peeled, cut into 2 cm pieces
2 tbsp oil
5 bacon rashers, chopped (I use shortcut)
2/3 cup chicken stock
2/3 cup cream
½ cup freshly grated parmesan
Chopped parsley to garnish

Method
  • Preheat the oven to 200° or 180° fan forced. Grease a 7 cup ovenproof dish.

  • Cook the gnocchi in boiling water (salted if desired) for about 2 minutes or until they pop up to the top. Transfer to a colander to drain.


  • Put the gnocchi in the greased dish.

  • Cook the pumpkin in boiling salted water for about 2 - 3 minutes, and at the same time cook the bacon in oil in a frypan till it is crisp or to your liking.

  • Add the pumpkin to the bacon and toss to coat.
  • Season with pepper


  • Transfer this pumpkin mixture on top of the gnocchi.


  • Mix the stock and the cream in a bowl and pour over the gnocchi mixture. Stir to combine.


  • Sprinkle with parmesan and bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until the cheese is starting to brown. Drizzle with a bit of extra olive oil.


  • Serve and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
