My children, Jaime and Rosanna came up with this recipe. They love to make pasta and suggested I try a kamote instead of the usual potato. This is a dish they can make on their won now, with very little supervision. Thank you Jaime and Rosanna, for inspiring me everyday

You need to get it a little sticky to combine it so add water as necessary. If it gets too sticky, add a little flour.

Cut of sections and roll them into thinner, smaller parts. You want to make the gnocchi the size of a segment of your finger.

Once the gnocchi are formed and rolled out, take the back of a fork and make an imprint on the gnocchi. This is so that the gnocchi picks up any sauce you will add.
