45 mins
3 large Scotty brand Kestrel Potatoes
250g plain flour
4 tbsp cocoa powder
2 tbsp sugar
1 egg
Oil for frying
Icing to decorate
Peel and chop the potatoes into small chunks. Add to a pan of boiling water and cook till soft.
Strain the potato, mash and let cool.
Add the potato to a bowl, make a well and crack in the egg. Add in the sugar and cocoa powder and mix well.
Add in the flour gradually and work together till a dough forms.
Pour onto a floured surface and knead until it stops being sticky (you made need to add more flour if it still quite wet).
Roll into a long sausage that is about two finger tips in thickness. Then cut along and roll into balls.
Heat the oil in a pan and add in the gnocchi. Cook on all sides and strain on some kitchen towel.
Let these cool and decorate with icing to look like Christmas puds.
