How to make Rice Flour Gnocchi:

To prepare the rice flour gnocchi start by peeling the potatoes, cutting them into pieces and cooking in a pan with water and salt. Turn off when they are soft.

After cooking, drain the broth, reserving 1 cup of this amount. Mash the potatoes in the pan, add the oil, ¾ of the rice flour and the reserved stock. Turn the heat back on and mix until you get a mashed potato-like consistency, as in the photo.

Turn off the heat, let it warm and add the remaining rice flour. Transfer the gluten-free gnocchi dough to a floured surface, knead into a smooth, compact dough, and form into rolls about 1.5 centimeters thick.

Cut the gnocchi rolls into pieces and cook in plenty of salted water and a few drops of oil. When the gnocchi rise to the surface, remove them with a skimmer.

Your rice flour gnocchi is ready! Serve immediately with, for example, gluten-free white sauce and mushrooms in a light oven. Enjoy your food!
