Let me tell you about this extraordinary flatbread creation – it's in a league of its own! Drawing inspiration from the iconic Italian favorite, gnocchi with leeks and sausage, my partner-in-crime in the kitchen, my Italian friend Aurora Cavallo, aka Cooker Girl, came to visit me in my studio in NYC to cook some delicious dishes. Our adventure began with a culinary rescue mission. I had a couple of leftover boiled potatoes and baked pumpkin from the night before and Aurora and I decided to bring them to life again. Together, we took these humble ingredients and transformed them into something truly extraordinary. Armed with a trusty potato ricer, we mashed the potatoes and integrated them into a dough, imbuing it with not just an incredible texture but a symphony of flavors! To expedite our culinary masterpiece, we enlisted the help of baking powder, which whisked us through the wait time. But hey, if you've got the luxury of time on your side, don't hesitate to opt for dry yeast or sourdough, letting that dough ferment to perfection (I'd absolutely go that route if we had more time). Now, let's talk cooking – no fancy gadgets or specialized equipment needed here. We took our dough straight to a sizzling hot pan, where it underwent a glorious transformation. But wait for the toppings Gingis. We crowned our freshly baked flatbread with homemade labaneh cheese, artfully arranged baked pumpkin pieces, delicate slices of leek, spicy Italian sausage, and a tantalizing drizzle of chili oil. What a bite, mamma mia!
