Instructions
- To make Nonna Maria's fresh gnocchi, boil the potatoes until they are nice and soft.
- Once boiled, peel the potatoes and squash them through the potato masher and onto a wooden board.
- Spread the potatoes out slightly using a fork to help them cool.
- Add three eggs to the potatoes and mix them through well using your hands.
- Then, add a sprinkle of salt to the gnocchi and continue to mix through.
- Get a handful of flour, sprinkle it on top and then mix it through by beginning to knead the dough.
- Continue this process until the gnocchi dough is no longer sticky.
- Once you are happy with the consistency, cut a small portion of the gnocchi dough and using the palms of your hands to just below the tips of your fingers, roll the dough into a long coil – make sure it's not too thin!
- Then, using a sharp knife cut the coil into small pillow-like shapes, on a diagonal.
- Sprinkle added flour over each of the gnocchi and using a cheese grater, gently press each gnocchi into it until it creates a small gap in the bottom of the gnocchi. This will help them stay nice and soft once they cook through.
- Once finished, bring 5L of water to boil in a large pot and add the gnocchi in.
- When the gnocchi have risen to the top, wait a few seconds then gather them up a small portion at a time, using a large hand sieve/strainer.
