Week 11

This week we made potato gnocchi with a tomato sauce and cinnamon swirls. We started with the tomato sauce which is easy so was quick to make. Then we made the potato gnocchi which went well apart from that we used the wrong type of flour. We put them them to the side and started on the cinnamon swirls which was harder, it started with dough which went well, then the cinnamon filling which also went well but then we had to roll it out to 50cm by 35cm and then covered in the filling. It was very hard to get it big enough! Once we had managed to get it rolled out, filled and rolled up into a worm we sliced it into sections and left it to rise for an hour, till it had doubled in size. We then cooked the gnocchi and some pasta too because there wasn't much gnocchi. It tasted wonderful. We watched a film while we waited for the swirls to rise and cook and they took a while but when they were done they tasted great.
