I made my own gnocchi for the first time last night.  I saw Angela Hartnett on last week’s Saturday Kitchen and was reminded that I had her book Cucina with an easy gnocchi recipe.

I made some on a whim quite late last night, so haven’t actually eaten any yet, but tonight I’ll be cooking them up with a mushroom ragu, also from Cucina.  They look pretty good and the rawish version I’ve had so far was tasty, so I’m pretty excited!  The ragu sounds pretty delicious too.

Update: Angela says that if you have to chew, you’ve made the gnocchi wrong.  I guess I did it right then! Melt in the mouth gnocchi with salty mushroom ragu.  I had some gruyere in the fridge, so had that on top. Yum.  I probably shouldn’t have had enough for two people though….
