Gnocchi in Cheddar Sauce

I found this recipe at Authentic Food Delights - and here it was served with a creamy sauce - but I had a ready packet of cheddar sauce mix and took the easy way out.  The recipe is simple and as described at the original post - it really melts in your mouth.  I also used olive oil instead of butter and sprinkled some Italian seasoning in the Gnocchi which added an extra flavouring to it.

Ingredients: Easily serves 2


Medium sized potato - 2 nos
Maida - 2 tbsp
Olive oil - 1 tbsp
Chilie flakes - to taste
Salt - to taste
Italian seasoning - to taste ( optional)
Coriander leaves - few

Cheddar sauce - made with a ready mix packet - follow instructions

Boil the potatoes
Grate fine
Add all other ingredients and mix to form a soft dough
Roll small balls of the mixture and make a small depression in the centre.
Heat water in a vessel
Put small batches of gnocchi in the boiling water.
It will settle to the bottom and will rise to the top as it cooks
Remove with a slotted spoon and allow to drain.

Arrange gnocchi on a plate and pour sauce of your choice on it and garnish
Serve with sauce.
