Assembly
9
Put large pot of water on to boil gnocchi.
11
Add goat and ricotta cheese.
12
Add flour and stir.
13
If necessary add more flour until the dough is just dry enough that it does not stick to the bowl and holds together. You want to be very careful about how much flour you add. If you are heavy handed with it, your gnocchi will be heavy.

Place dough on floured surface.

Cut logs into 1/2 inch sections.

Remove gnocchi when they float to the surface of the water (about 30 seconds)

In small batches saute the gnocchi about 20--30 seconds on each side.
22
Steak
23
Striploin steak
24
Pat dry with a paper towel
25
Season with s&p
26
Saute over medium heat about 3 minutes on first side and 2 minutes on the second for rare.
27
Let rest for 10 minutes.
29

Add shallots and saute until softened (2 minutes).
32
Add thyme.
