INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Cut the pumpkin into chunks and toss with a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Put it in a saucepan with 6 tablespoons of water, cover with a lid and bring to cooking in 10-15 minutes.
  2. Reduce pumpkin in puree whisking briefly. Then stir in the flour and rice flour, stirring carefully until you obtain a smooth cream. Put the mixture on the stove and cook, stirring constantly, heat midbass for a few minutes, until a compact mass, a sort of ball that remains attached to the spoon.
  3. Reduce the broccoli into florets and boil in salted water for about ten minutes. Then whisk them flavouring with grated nutmeg, a tablespoon of olive oil and a bit of the cooking water. You will need to obtain a rather fluid sauce.
  4. Toast for a few minutes the almond flakes in a small saucepan. Add chopped sage and garlic, then brown them with 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
  5. Divide the dough pumpkin, now cooled, cut into pieces. Turn each roll, not too thick and cut a poor inch long gnocchis.
  6. Boil the gnocchis for 2-3 minutes in salted water, drain with a slotted spoon directly on the plates already coated with the cream of broccoli. Toss with olive oil, sage and completed with toasted almonds.
