METHOD GNOCCHI

Roast the Vegetables: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake olive oil-rubbed, pricked potatoes for about 45 minutes. Halve and seed the squash, brush with oil, and roast cut-side up for about 1 to 1.5 hours until tender.

Prepare the Puree: Peel hot potatoes and pass through a ricer. Scoop cooled squash flesh and pass through a ricer or puree in a food processor. Let the mixture cool completely.

Make the Dough: Add egg, salt, and nutmeg to the cooled potato and squash mixture. Gradually add flour, kneading gently until the dough is slightly sticky but holds together. Avoid overworking the dough.

Shape the Gnocchi: Divide the dough on a floured surface and roll into ½-inch ropes. Cut into ¾-inch pieces. Optionally, roll each piece on a flour-dusted fork or gnocchi board to create ridges. Chill shaped gnocchi on parchment-lined, floured baking sheets for at least an hour.

METHOD

Bring salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in batches until they float, plus 1-2 minutes. Melt butter in a large skillet and cook until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes). Add sage leaves and cook for 1 minute until crispy. Transfer cooked gnocchi to the skillet with the brown butter sauce and toss to coat. Cook for 5-7 minutes until heated and lightly browned. Season, transfer to a serving bowl, and top with extra Parmesan.
