Ingredients

• 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 3 sweet potatoes, peeled, cooked and mashed without liquid with a potato masher).
• 1 tsp of salt
• 1 1/2 to 2 cups flour

Preparation

1. Place the puree in a bowl and add the flour and salt.
2. Mix well until a very homogeneous dough of the ideal consistency is formed, neither sticky nor dry.
3. Form long strips with the dough, making sure to use flour so that it does not stick to the counter where you work, or to your hands.
4. Cut the strips into small pieces of the desired gnocchi size.
5. They can be formed into balls/ovals or shaped using a fork, crushing each bit on the flats of the fork tines and working down to form lines in the oval or dough.
6. Once all the gnocchis are formed, start cooking them in boiling water with salt and a little oil. Cook them in batches, not all at once; once they float, they are ready to serve.
