Instructions

  1. 1. Boil 1 medium cauliflower head until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain well and mash until smooth.
  2. 2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed cauliflower, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 egg, 1 cup finely chopped spinach, and 1 cup almond flour. Mix until a stiff dough forms. Add more almond flour if needed.
  3. 3. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and set aside.
  4. 4. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
  5. 5. Stir in 1 cup double cream and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
  6. 6. Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil with 1 tbsp salt. Add half of the gnocchi and cook until they rise to the top, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain. Repeat with the remaining gnocchi.
  7. 7. Gently mix the cooked gnocchi into the cream sauce, ensuring they are well coated.
