Préparation
Cook the squash and potatoes
Peel, seed, and cut the squash. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, add thyme and rosemary, then bake at 180 °C for 30 to 40 minutes until tender. Meanwhile, cook the whole potatoes with their skins in salted water for 25 to 30 minutes. Peel them while still warm, then mash them. Blend the roasted squash and mix it with the potato puree to achieve a smooth base.
Prepare the gnocchi dough
Add the egg yolk, parmesan, salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg. Gradually incorporate the flour until you obtain a soft, slightly sticky dough that is easy to work with.
Shape the gnocchi
Flour the work surface. Form logs about 2 cm in diameter, then cut them into small pieces about 1 cm long. Roll them lightly on a fork to create the characteristic ridges.
Cook the gnocchi
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the gnocchi in small batches: when they rise to the surface (1 to 2 minutes), they are cooked. Drain them using a slotted spoon.
Prepare the sauce
In a saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the shallots. Add the liquid cream and the squash puree, then let simmer for a few minutes. Incorporate the truffle Comté cream and let it gently simmer until you achieve a creamy sauce.
Finishing and plating
In a skillet, sauté the gnocchi in a bit of butter until they are lightly golden. Pour in the truffle Comté sauce, mix gently, and serve immediately. Finish with a few slices of fresh Burgundy truffle and, for extra indulgence, a drizzle of truffle olive oil.
Astuce(s) du Chef Plantin
For even lighter gnocchi, replace 30 g of flour with cornstarch. The texture will be airier and melt-in-your-mouth.
