We love Gnocchi. And we love wild garlic. And combining both sounded delightful for us.

So we decided to cook wild garlic gnocchi when we meet to cook together with my sisters family. And this time we were not lazy when making gnocchi (like we are when we make ricotta gnocchi) and form them first to little balls and then roll them over a fork to got the authentic look. Petra linked a great Video showing the method very well. And when one is forming the dough into small balls and two a rolling the balls over a fork, the gnocchi are fast done.

We ate them with a mushroom ragout, it was a delicious dish and a great day with the family!
