Servings: 4

Ingredients

Salt
1 teaspoon, plus more for boiling water
Egg
1 large
Plain flour
2 cups, plus extra for dusting
Russet potatoes
2 large

Instructions

  1. Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil.
  2. Add the potatoes to the boiling water and let them cook until soft, about 20 minutes.
  3. Drain the potatoes and let them cool until safe to handle. Then, peel the potatoes.
  4. Using a potato masher or ricer, mash the potatoes until smooth and without lumps.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, egg, and salt. Mix well until a soft, pliable dough forms.
  6. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Dust a clean surface with flour and roll each part into a long rope, about 1 inch in diameter.
  7. Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces to form the gnocchi. Use a fork to make ridges on each piece, if desired.
  8. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil again. Gently add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes.
  9. Drain the gnocchi and serve immediately with your favorite sauce.
