Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Prepare the potatoes in their jackets. Meanwhile, melt the butter, making sure it doesn’t brown. Peel the cooked potatoes and, while still hot, press them through a potato ricer (if you don’t have one, mash them very finely with a fork). Knead the flour, Parmesan cheese, and melted butter into the potato mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Knead thoroughly for about 4-5 minutes until you have an elastic dough. Form the dough into thin rolls. Cut the rolls into slices. Flatten the slices slightly; if you like, you can make ridges in them with a fork. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and let them simmer in the simmering water. When they float to the top, they’re done. Serve with a cheese or tomato sauce.
