Preparing the pumpkin gnocchi:
Halve the pumpkin, remove the flesh and seeds, and place it cut-side down in the oven at 200 °C fan for approx.
40 minutes. Leave to cool, then scoop out the soft pumpkin flesh as thoroughly as possible and press it through a
potato ricer. Mix with the egg, flour, Parmesan and a little salt. Gradually add more flour until a smooth, non-sticky
dough forms.
Shaping and cooking the gnocchi:
Shape the dough into a long roll, cut it into small pieces and roll them into balls. Use kitchen twine to create the
typical pumpkin shape by carefully wrapping the twine around each gnocchi. Cook the gnocchi in boiling water until
they rise to the surface, then remove them and carefully take off the twine. Finally, fry briefly until golden brown
and crispy.
Preparing the sauce:
Melt the butter in a pan and fry the garlic until fragrant. Add the cream and stir in the Parmesan, soy sauce,
chicken stock and spices. Add a small pinch of sugar and simmer briefly until the sauce becomes creamy.
To serve:
Add the crispy pumpkin gnocchi to the sauce and gently toss until they are evenly coated. Serve immediately and enjoy.
Preparation time:
approx. 1 hour 35 minutes (including cooling, cooking and baking time).
