Homemade gnocchi sounds tricky, but the actual process is pretty easy — and well worth the effort. Potato gnocchi are apparently easy to make, but they hide a series of small pitfalls that can determine the outcome of a bad dish. What are the secrets to make potato gnocchi that do not lose shape.

To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook potato gnocchi using 4 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Potato Gnocchi:

  1. Make ready 300 grams Potatoes
  2. Get 95 grams Plain flour
  3. Get 1 Egg
  4. Get 1/4 heaping teaspoon Salt

Gnocchi (pronounced NYO-kee), small, tender dumplings made with potatoes, are an excellent alternative. When made properly, they're light and tender, with a slight chew. In all my research, I have yet to see a good recipe that doesn't warn the reader that its measurements are an approximation. In fact, potato gnocchi may be among the most popular gnocchi versions in the world today.

Steps to make Potato Gnocchi:

  1. Peel the potatoes and place in a heat proof dish. Cover and microwave for 3-4 minutes. Mash while they're hot. Mix with the flour, egg and salt.
  2. The amount of flour you will need will depend on the potatoes. Start by adding about 80 g first. If you add too much, the resulting gnocchi will be stiff.
  3. Mix gently until the dough is about the same consistency as your earlobes. Do not overwork at this point, otherwise the gnocchi will be tough later.
  4. Form the dough into a ball and divide it in half on a floured (not listed in the ingredients) surface.
  5. Roll the divided dough into two long sausage shapes and cut them in half. Cut the dough into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Place a piece of dough onto the back of a fork. Press the piece with your index finger to indent the gnocchi (see the photo). This allows the sauce to stick to it better.
  7. Cook the gnocchi in plenty of boiling salted water. Once the gnocchi floats up to the surface it is ready (just like making shirotama dumplings).
  8. Remove the gnocchi from the boiling water and drain in a colander. Toss in a sauce you like and serve.
  9. An example of a sauce: Place 200 ml of double cream and 50-100 g of Gorgonzola cheese in a frying pan and melt. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add some white wine to your taste and some gnocchi. Mix all together and transfer onto a serving dish. Grind black pepper on top.
