cauliflower gnocchi

I was trying to find a recipe for Gnocchi form scratch and I found this recipe for Cauliflower Gnocchi. People are going crazy about using Cauliflower in everything these days...I am joining in. I made this Cauliflower Gnocchi and it is great. You will not tell that there is Cauliflower in it. But you know you are giving something better to your kids when you give this to them.

 cauliflower Gnocchi 

Ingredients:

1. 2-3 cups of cauliflower florets
2. 1 medium large russet potato
3. 2 cups + as needed all purpose flour
4. 1 egg lightly beaten
5. 1 teaspoon salt
6. 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Boil the potatos and cauliflower separately for 15-17 minutes until very soft. Peel the potatoes and mash the cauliflower (well drained) and potatoes together until smooth. Add the salt and pepper. Add the flour and mix until dough forms. Make a well in the middle and add the lightly beaten egg into it and mix well. If the cauliflower had lot of water in it you might have to add more flour until it comes together.

Divide the dough into 2-3 parts and roll each part into logs about 1/2 inch thick. Cut the logs into 1 inch pieces.

Boil water in a stock pot with salt. Add the Gnocchi to it and boil it until they start to float. Drain and serve with your favorite paste sauce.

I served it with Marinara sauce
