Garbanzo Parsnip Gnocchi

Saute vegs in oil until onions are translucent and parsnips are soft. Process until a smooth paste is formed. Add all remaining ingredients except peanut oil and blend until well mixed. Heat oil in a 3′ deep skillet to 375. Fill the bowl of a tablespoon w/batter and use a second spoon to scoop it into the oil. It may help to oil the spoon, but I haven’t had any problems. Don’t fry more than four at a time because they get done in less than a minute and if you leave them longer they’ll burn and the fat content will skyrocket. Drain and serve. For the tomato sauce I recomend your basic homemade tomato sauce w/o any bay leaf but some extra red wine. Figger it out for yourself. If you can’t make your own tomato sauce you’ve already read too far;-) (also from Friendly Foods, serves 4) From: mad4@ellis.uchicago.edu (Bill Maddex) —– Archive January 2010 December 2009 July 2009 June 2009 April 2009 March 2009 December 2008 November 2008 October 2008 September 2008 August 2008 July 2008 June 2008
