About Njokis
Njoki, commonly known as gnocchi, is a soft, bite-sized dumpling typically associated with Italian cuisine. Traditionally made from a base of potatoes, flour, and eggs, it’s a versatile dish often served with sauces like marinara, pesto, or butter and sage. While regional variations may include ingredients such as ricotta or spinach, the primary components remain simple and satisfying. Njoki is a source of carbohydrates, making it an excellent option for energy, though its nutritional profile depends on preparation. Whole-grain or alternative-flour versions can boost fiber and nutrients. To keep the dish balanced, pair it with vegetables and lean proteins. However, traditional njoki can be calorie-dense and low in fiber, so portion control and mindful toppings are key to keeping it a healthier choice. Perfectly cooked njoki should be light and pillowy, offering a comforting yet elegant base for countless dishes.
