Gnocchi

By: Jason  Family: Jason's Family


The real deal, straight from the boot!
prep time:30 mins
cook time:20 mins
total time:50 mins
serves:6

Ingredients

8 large Idaho potatoes (Russett if you cannot find Idaho)
3 cups flour
1 egg
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter


Directions

Peel and boil potatoes until tender in salted water, drain and let cool (5-10 minutes). Mash potatoes, add egg, salt and butter. Add flour gradually as needed, the consistency should be similar to a bread dough, not sticky, but not too dry.

Take about 1/4 of the dough, and role out a rope that is about 3/4" thick. Cut the rope into 1" long pieces. Roll the pieces into a ball and roll down a course cheese grater or fork to "rib" the Gnocchi.

To cook, bring large pot of salted water to boil, drop in Gnocchi (small batches), they will float to the top when ready. Scoop out with slotted spoon.

Serve with fresh spaghetti sauce, fresh parmesan cheese optional.
