Ingredients for Gnocchi
- 500 g potatoes
- 180 g flour
- 120 g melting cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 pinch of pepper
- Salt for boiling
- Olive oil for frying
Preparation for Gnocchi
- Peel the potatoes, cut them into large chunks, and place them in a pot.
- Cover with plenty of cold water, add salt, and boil over high heat until softened. This will take approximately 20-25 minutes from when the water begins to boil.
- Drain the potatoes, spread them on a baking tray, and let them cool, allowing excess moisture to evaporate.
- Mash the potatoes and place them in a large bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and knead gently to combine. Avoid overworking the dough to prevent it from becoming too firm due to the potato starch.
- Place the dough on a floured surface, sprinkle with some flour, and roll into strips or transfer it to a piping bag.
- Cut the strips into small pieces and dust them with flour to prevent sticking.
Boiling the Gnocchi
- Boil water in a pot over high heat.
- Add all the gnocchi at once to ensure even cooking. Wait until they float to the surface.
- Cook for an additional 40-50 seconds after they rise to the surface.
- Remove the gnocchi using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes.
- Drain and spread them on a baking tray.
