Gnocchi Recipe

Gnocchi Preparation

1. 1

   Cook the Potatoes

   Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

2. 2

   Make the Dough

   Peel the potatoes and mash them in a bowl. Add flour, egg, salt, and nutmeg. Mix until a dough forms. If too sticky, add more flour.

3. 3

   Shape the Gnocchi

   Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Optional: Roll each piece on a fork to create ridges.

4. 4

   Cook the Gnocchi

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