GNOCCHI

Ingredients

  • 2 lb white potatoes
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 3 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • 6 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Directions

  • Place potatoes in a pressure cooker with enough water to cover.
  • Close pressure cooker and put in medium heat.
  • Cook for 5 minutes after the regulator starts to blow steam or until tender.
  • Peel potatoes and rice them using a potato ricer.
  • Place riced potatoes in a large bowl and refrigerated for at least 3 hours (better if refrigerated overnight).
  • Combine into the refrigerated riced potatoes the egg, margarine, salt, grated cheese and mix well while adding the flour just enough to keep mixture from sticking.
  • Roll the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rope ¾-inch thick and cut into 1-inch long pieces.
  • Press each piece with a fork to create a pattern and slight indentation that will hold the sauce when served.
  • Boil the gnocchi in batches in plenty of salted water.
  • The gnocchi are done about 2 minutes after they float to the surface, remove with a slotted spoon, and serve.
