Serves 2
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
*600g Jerusalem artichoke
*90g pasta flour + extra for dusting
*2 rosemary sprigs
*2 cloves of garlic, crushed
*1⁄2 lemon, zested and juiced
*40g parmesan
*1 handful of hazelnuts
*1 tbsp butter
*1 tsp olive oil
*Salt and pepper
Method:
1) Preheat the oven to 190C. Wash the Jerusalem artichokes under cold water
to remove any dirt from the skin. Dry thoroughly and prick with the tip of a knife or small knife. Cover the bottom of a baking tray with a thin layer of the salt and place the Jerusalem artichokes on top. Bake the artichokes for 35-40 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
2) Cut the Jerusalem artichokes in two. Using a spoon, scoop out as much of the flesh as possible, compost the skins. Add the flesh to a mixing bowl and mash with a fork. Slowly incorporate the flour into the jerusalem artichoke mash and mix until it just comes together into a soft dough. If too sticky, add a little flour. Divide the dough into four pieces and roll into long cigars. To make the gnocchi, cut the rolls of dough into 2cm pieces. Use a fork and roll each gnocchis to lightly dent the tops and give some extra texture.
3) In a small bowl, combine the grated parmesan, lemon zest and black pepper. Roast the hazelnuts for 3 minutes, and roughly chop.
4) Cook the gnocchis in boiling salted water until they come up
at the surface, for about 3 minutes. In the meantime, add the butter to a frying pan,
along with the rosemary and garlic. Cook the butter gently for 2-3 minutes, until
starting to colour and smelling nutty. Add the olive oil to prevent the butter from
burning. Empty half of the butter into a mixing bowl, and return the pan to the
heat. Pan fry the gnocchis for 2-3 minutes until gold & crispy and season well. Toss together with the Parmesan, lemon, hazelnut toppings. Serve on a bed of wilted spinach and a squeeze of lemon.
