Preparation and Cooking

1. 1

   Prepare the Dumplings

   Peel and boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and let them cool slightly. Mash the potatoes until smooth.

2. 2

   Make the Dumpling Dough

   In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, egg, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.

3. 3

   Shape the Dumplings

   Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into a ball. Make a small indentation in the center of each ball.

4. 4

   Cook the Dumplings

   Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the water. They are done when they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

5. 5

   Prepare the Pomodoro Sauce

   In a saucepan, heat the pomodoro sauce over medium heat until warmed through. Add olive oil to taste.

6. 6

   Combine and Serve

   Drain the cooked dumplings and place them in a serving dish. Pour the pomodoro sauce over the dumplings, sprinkle with diced fresh mozzarella, and garnish with fresh basil.
