Description

These little dumplings are little pillows just begging to be covered in a fabulous marinara sauce!

Ingredients

  • 3 whole Medium Potatoes
  • 2 whole Large Eggs
  • 1-¼ cup All-purpose Flour

Preparation

Peel, cut, and boil potatoes until you can easily pierce them with a fork, but don’t over-cook! Drain potatoes and place in a mixing bowl. Add the eggs and whip until fluffy. Add the flour. Turn onto a floured surface and knead dough with hands until smooth, adding more flour if necessary to prevent sticking. Place dough into a bowl. Take a handful at a time and roll into a long rope, about 3/4″ thick. Cut the rope into 1-inch pieces, flatten slightly. With your index finger, gently dent the center of each piece slightly. Drop into boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes. The gnocci will float when they are ready. Drain, and place in a large pasta bowl. Serve with spaghetti or marinara sauce with grated cheese (parmasean, romano, reggiano, or mozzarella are nice) and fresh basil as garnish.

I love gnocci and can’t wait to try this! Have you experimented with using whole wheat flour? If so, how did it turn out?

This is so much easier than the recipe I have! I’m looking forward to making them for dinner tomorrow
