I do not eat Gnocchi often, but recently Christopher and I went to a restaurant and I ordered it but it just didn’t send me anywhere, so I decided to come home and try my own recipe. It is actually pretty easy to make even after a day at work.
INGREDIENTS
8 potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
8 potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 can tomato sauce
1 block of mozzarella cheese, or shredded mozzarella
DIRECTIONS
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop in potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool slightly, and peel. Mash potatoes with fork, masher or in ricer. Place in large bowl and make a well in the center. Put butter in well and allow to melt. When mashed potatoes have cooled, knead in enough of the flour to make a soft dough.
Divide dough into fist-sized portions. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a long rope. Cut the ropes into one-inch pieces. Roll each piece with a fork for a distinctive texture.
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Drop in gnocchi and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until they float to the top. Put gnocchi in a bake ware container, and cover with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese, bake in oven till cheese is melted! Garnish with some parsley!
