Ingredients:

• 1.2kg sweet potato 
• 100g ricotta 
• 1 1/2 cups flour 
• 125g mascarpone 
• 100g gorgonzola 
• 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan 
• 1/3 cup milk 
• Chopped chives, to serve 

Instructions

1. Microwave the sweet potato on high for 8-10 mins or until very tender. Set aside to cool. Peel and discard skin. Using a ladle, push the sweet potato and ricotta through a fine sieve into a large bowl. Season with salt. Add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms (you may not need to add all the flour).
2. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 portions. Roll 1 dough portion into a 2.5cm-thick log. Cut into 1.5cm slices. Press with a fork to make indentations. Set aside, in a single layer, on a large baking tray dusted with flour. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
3. Combine the mascarpone, gorgonzola, parmesan and milk in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring, over medium heat for 4-5 mins or until hot but not boiling.
4. Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook the gnocchi, in 2 batches, for 2-3 mins or until they rise to the surface and are slightly puffed.
5. Use a slotted spoon to transfer gnocchi to plates and drizzle with sauce. Sprinkle with chives and season with pepper.
