STEP 1

Boil the potatoes with skins on until tender. While still warm, peel and mash, or pass them through a potato ricer.

STEP 2

On a clean surface, form the mashed potatoes into a mound and create a well in the centre. Add the egg and a pinch of salt. Gradually mix in the flour until a soft dough forms.

STEP 3

Lightly knead the dough until it’s smooth, but not sticky.

STEP 4

Divide the dough into portions, roll each portion into a long rope, and cut into bite-sized pieces. Gently press each piece with a fork to create ridges.

STEP 5

Boil the gnocchi in salted water until they float to the surface, about 2–3 minutes. Drain and serve with your favourite sauce.
