I know its bad to promote fried food but Sicilians love it and pretty much try and deep fry anything. This alternative Gnocchi recipe is great as a snack or side dish. I have added Harissa to flavour the gnocchi and I think it makes the dish.
Ingredients
1 Pack Gnocchi
2 tbsp. Harissa spice
salt & pepper to season
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
Method.
In a deep fryer at 180c cook the gnocchi until golden and floating on the surface of the oil. When cooked transfer to a large mixing bowl, add the harissa, bit of salt and pepper and a dash of balsamic, add 2 tbsp. of the hot oil and then give a good shake. The result is phenomenal. I have also made a dip using some mayonnaise and a sprinkle of harissa.
