Since I bought a whole kabocha squash, I came up with a few twists. This is one of them.

The kabocha squash might be slightly firm in Step 2, but do the best you can.
The firmness of the dough will depend on the water content of the kabocha squash. Please refer to Step 3 to adjust. Recipe by maynyan

Steps

1

Peel and thinly slice the kabocha squash. Microwave for 4-5 minutes to soften.
2

Mash the kabocha roughly. Add the katakuriko and milk. Mix well until smooth.
3

Add more milk if the gnocchi dough is too firm at this point. If it's too soft, adjust by adding a little katakuriko.
4

Take the kabocha dough in your hands and roll it up into a ball. Dust your hand with flour if it's sticky.
5

Press down with the back of a fork to flatten and pattern.
6

Repeat for the rest of the dough.
7

Cook in boiling water. When the gnocchi float to the top, drain in a colander.
8

Enjoy with your desired flavoring ingredients. You can freeze to store any leftovers.
