Homemade always tastes so much better — especially because you know exactly what goes into it. If you love gnocchi, you are sure to enjoy this recipe.
Ingredients for 4 servings:#
- 1000 g potatoes (floury)
- 3 egg yolks
- 200 g flour
- 1 tsp salt
- black pepper
- 1 knife tip nutmeg
Preparation:#
Wash, peel, and quarter the potatoes and cook until tender. Mash while still hot and place in a bowl.
Add egg yolks, flour, salt, pepper, and nutmeg and knead in.
On a floured work surface, shape the dough into a 2 cm thick roll. Then cut the roll into 1 cm thick slices.
Press lightly with the tip of a fork so they get the classic gnocchi pattern.
Bring plenty of water to a boil in a pot and add salt. Add the gnocchi and bring to a boil. The water should not bubble vigorously — simmer on medium heat for about 4 minutes. When they float to the surface, remove and drain.
In a pan, you can toss the gnocchi in butter and serve with a sauce of your choice.
Tip: Gnocchi taste best with tomato sauce or pesto. Enjoy!
Enjoy!
