Only in Wisconsin will we have 60-some degree weather and snow the next day. I was about to break out the flip flops! Needless to say I wasn't in the mood to make a Metro Market run-instead I pulled from my pantry and from past recipes and meshed vegan Italian gnocchi with my favorite Russian dumplings to create...wait for it... spicy gnocchi! I have to say these gnocchi dumplings are so versatile you could top them with anything so I figured I would share this poor man's dinner recipe with you (as in- whomever is taking the time to read this...).
Ingredients/Tools: mixing bowl, masher, potatoes, flour.
*Bake 6 Russet potatoes at 350 degrees for about an hour.
*Peel the skin off and mash them ASAP.
* Let mashed taters cool for 10-15min and put a big pot of water to boil
*Add about a 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flower and work together until it becomes a solid piece of dough- work in more flour if needed.
*Roll dough into snake like pieces about an inch in diameter
* Cut snake into half inch pieces and press fork lightly into pasta piece.
*Drop serving size portions of dumplings in boiling water and let rise to the top.
* Spoon out and eat right away with your choice of sauce and toppings.
Spicy Pel Meni Topping: Vegan Margarine (Earth Balance), Siracha, splash of Rice Vinegar, Curry Powder, chopped Cilantro, dolup of Tofutti Sour Supreme.
ENJOY!!
