Ingredients

Gnocchi

Meat Sauce

Preparation

Making the Gnocchi

1. Prepare Potatoes

Boil the russet potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly. Peel the potatoes and mash them until smooth.

2. Make Dough

In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, egg, and salt. Mix until a dough forms, adding more flour if necessary. The dough should be soft but not sticky.

3. Shape Gnocchi

Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about ½ inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Optionally, use a fork to create ridges.

4. Cook Gnocchi

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi in batches. They are done when they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Making the Meat Sauce

5. Cook Meat

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent. Add ground beef and cook until browned.

6. Simmer Sauce

Stir in crushed tomatoes and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and black pepper. Simmer on low for 20-25 minutes.

Combine and Serve

7. Mix Gnocchi and Sauce

Toss the cooked gnocchi with the meat sauce until well coated. Serve hot.
