I've been wanting to make gnocchi at home, and I finally settled on this after many tries.
You can use kabocha squash instead of potatoes and still get an amazing result.

The meat sauce will have a tartness to it if you add the minimum amount of sugar (3 tablespoons). This might suit grown-up tastes better.
Take care not to overcook the gnocchi in Step 8 since there's a risk of having them melt away.
To save time, start making the meat sauce when you're waiting for the potatoes to cool down in Step 4. This way the sauce will finish around the same time with the gnocchi in Step 8. For 3-4 servings. Recipe by Mayupin
