Ingredients:

  • Yellow Fleshed Potato
  • Spinach
  • Egg
  • Green onion
  • Garlic
  • Olive oil
  • Parsley
  • Strained tomato
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Butter
  • Sage
  1. Boil 4-6 yellow fleshed potatoes until fork tender, and remove the skins.
  2. Sauté Spinach so that you are left with about ½ cup after cooking them down. Blend the Spinach with 1 large egg until a fine chop is achieved.
  3. Run the potatoes through a potato ricer or cheese grater until you have a fluffy pile of potato bits. Add the Spinach blend on top, and mix by hand. Add flour and kneed until a supple dough is formed. It should be moist but not sticky.
  4. Roll the dough out into ½” inch logs, and slice into ¼” – ½” inch pieces. Imprint a groove onto the pasta by using a gnocchi paddle or a fork.
  5. Boil in salted water until the pasta floats and is done to your desired texture. Optionally, pan-fry the pasta in Olive oil until golden brown for a crispy exterior.
  6. Top with sauce and enjoy!

Butter & Sage Recipe

  1. In a pan, cook fresh sage leaves in butter until fragrant. Be sure to use very low heat to avoid browning the butter or sage. Season with salt & pepper. 

Note: The longer you cook the sage in the butter, the more flavour the butter will soak from the sage. This is why it’s important to use as low a heat as possible.
