ingredients

For Gnocchi

  • 1 lb red skinned potatoes

  • 2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 cup fresh parmesan

  • 1 cup flour

  • 1 egg

*NOTE I wish I would have written down this sauce! It is a combination of mushrooms, pancetta, parmesan, white wine, vegetable stock & butter. Taste as you go & get creative!

 
 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Boil potatoes with skin on until fork tender, about 15-20 minutes. Peel & grate or run through food mill. Add Parmesan.

  2. Separately, combine flour & salt, then put onto the countertop & make a well in the middle.

  3. Crack egg into well & add potato mixture. 

  4. Using your fingers, mix the egg & potato together, slowly incorporating the flour into the well.

  5. Knead dough until smooth. Separate into 4-5 sections & roll into long ropes. Cut into bite sized pieces.

  6. Press the pieces into a small bowl of flour & then onto the back of a floured fork. Using your thumb, lightly press & roll the dough along the fork to form the dumpling.

  7. Let rest in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. Boil water, add 1 tsp of salt & cook gnocchi until floating (~3 min)

  8. Pair with sauce of your choice & YUM!
