2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
200g black pudding, crumbled
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil for frying
Prepare the Potatoes:
Boil the peeled and cubed potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly.
Mash the Potatoes:
Mash the cooked potatoes using a potato masher or a ricer until smooth and lump-free.
Prepare the Black Pudding:
In a skillet, cook the crumbled black pudding over medium heat until crispy, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the black pudding from the skillet and let it cool slightly.
Combine the Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cooked black pudding, beaten egg, and salt and pepper to taste.
Gradually add the flour to the potato mixture, kneading gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Shape the Gnocchi:
On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into manageable portions.
Roll each portion into a long rope, about 1 inch thick.
Use a sharp knife to cut the rope into bite-sized pieces. Optionally, you can roll each piece against the back of a fork to create ridges.
Cook the Gnocchi:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water in batches, ensuring they don't overcrowd the pot.
Cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, usually about 2-3 minutes. Once they float, cook for an additional minute to ensure they're fully cooked.
Serve:
Remove the cooked gnocchi from the water using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a serving dish.
Drizzle the gnocchi with a bit of olive oil and toss gently to coat.
