Instructions
 

Prepare the Gnocchi

  • Boil the potatoes until tender. While still hot, push them through a ricer or fine-mesh sieve.
  • Immediately add the flour and salt, folding gently until a dough forms (about 10-12 minutes). Avoid over-kneading.
  • Divide the dough into 4-5 portions. Roll each portion into a 1 cm diameter rope.
  • Slightly flatten the ropes and cut into 1-inch pieces. Use a fork to create ridges on each gnocchi.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface (about 2-3 minutes). Let them cook for an additional 20-30 seconds after floating. Remove and set aside.

Toast the Gnocchi and Assemble the Salad

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  • Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and toast until lightly browned, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the gnocchi from the heat. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and arugula. Toss gently to combine.
  • Serve immediately.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of dried oregano or basil to the gnocchi dough.
  • If you don't have a ricer, you can mash the potatoes very well with a fork.
  • Feel free to customize the salad with other vegetables like roasted red peppers or zucchini.
  • Toasted pine nuts or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese (for non-vegans) would be a delicious addition.
