My gnocchi version
half a packet asda smart price instant mashed potato (you can’t taste the difference in this honest!) 8p
400g plain flour 9.6 p
make up mash according to packet instructions, I made mine a little wetter than normal, and added ground black pepper.
add flour and mix then knead until a fairly stiff dough. Somewhere between bread and pastry…Leave to rest for 30 mins then roll out into long sausages, about 1.5 cm fat, then cut into 2cm chunks. You can roll them into a ball now if you can be bothered! 
Cook gnocchi in boiling water til they rise to the surface of boiling water, approx 2 mins.
Makes 4 generous 
portions.
Great for vegetarians ceridwen!

Sounds really simple and delicious. My daughter makes a lovely cheese and onion pasty (frozen puff pastry) with instant mash, grated cheese and a chopped onion.
I would also love to know what the sauce is that you have used in this photograph

Love the blog, always enjoy reading it. I just made a gnocchi with choux pastry for the first time and it was incredible. Come take a look if you have a chance and let me know what you think. http://cookingquest.wordpress.com
