Homemade Potato Gnocchi

To make these homemade potato gnocchi all you need is three ingredients – flour, egg and leftover mashed potatoes!

1

MIX FLOUR & EGGS

Scoop flour onto a clean work surface and make a well in the center. Add in eggs and whisk with a fork incorporating flour as you whisk.

2

ADD MASHED POTATOES

Break up the mashed potatoes with your hands so they are in smaller clumps and add to the flour and egg mixture. Mix just until combined (don't overwork the dough).

3

FORM DOUGH BALL

Form the dough into a ball and let rest for 15 minutes.

4

DIVIDE INTO SECTIONS

Divide the dough into 4 sections and sprinkle your work surface with flour. Roll out each section into a long thin rope about 3/4 inch in diameter.

5

CUT GNOCCHI

Use a knife or bench scraper to cut them into 1 inch long pieces.

6

BOIL GNOCCHI

Bring a pot of water to a boil and sprinkle with salt. Add in gnocchi and cook for 3-4 minutes or until they float to the top of the water.

7

DRAIN GNOCCHI

Drain gnocchi then drizzle with olive oil to keep them from sticking together.

Serve immediately with your favorite sauce and enjoy!
