Gnocchi
- Place whole potatoes with skin/peel on boiling water, boil until soft all the way through
- Peel the potatoes
- Finely mash potatoes
- Add butter. Note: If water got into the potatoes (ie the peel split when boiling) mix in the butter over the heat to reduce the water content
- Add nut meg, salt and pepper
- Mash in the egg yolks
- Let the mixture cool down
- Add flour until good texture. Note: The less flour added the lighter the gnocchi
- Sprinkle flour on bench and roll out the gnocchi mixture into a sausage shape (approx 1cm diameter)
- Cut into 1-2cm lengths
- Place in large pot of salted boiling water, when they rise they are cooked (you need to scoop them out as they rise or else they will over cook)
