Fantastically easy SEMOLINA GNOCCHI 🍝

OMG THIS RECIPE. It's SO GOOD. According to Simon, the fancy name is Gnocchi Alla Romana, which sounds intimidating but the method is SIMPLE... I recommend coupling this recipe with Manbaby's Cake. The two recipes go together, because one uses all egg whites and one uses all egg yolks. Frankly, I find those half-egg-only recipes a bit wasteful because who’s that organised??

Recipe

Ingredients

• 60g butter

• 1/4 tsp whipped garlic or a slightly smushed garlic clove which you will pull out later 

• 1.25L milk 
• 5 egg yolks (save egg whites for semolina gnocchi)
• 200g cheddar (see recipe)

Method:

To begin, in a medium saucepan, over medium-low heat, bring milk, butter and garlic to a boil. Reduce heat and slowly add in 375g semolina. Whisk as it cooks and bubbles until thick and porridgey. (4 mins). Decant the lot into a large mixing bowl and allow to cool for 1 hour. 

Add in 5 egg yolks and 200g of the best cheddar cheese you can afford, grated (I use Mersey Valley or an English imported if I'm rich that week).  

Spread the lot out onto your largest baking trays and allow to cool overnight. Next day, cut your semolina into triangles. Arrange in an overlapping formation on a baking tray and cover with grated cheese, bake hot for 15 - 20 mins. Serve with a simple grated tomato sauce.
