I felt like such an idiot. I have always bought Gnocchi from the supermarket. I always found it to be tasteless little lumps.
Well I made it last night and boy what a revelation.
If you have time to mash potato and extra 2 minutes will give you lovely Gnocchi.
Mash your potato as per normal, I flavoured mine with an egg yolk and parmesan.
Add an equal amount of flour to the mixture, it should form a sticky dough.
On a floured bench roll the dough into a long sausage, cut the gnocchi into 2 cm lengths.
Place in boiling salted water and when they float to the surface they are done.
Of course you can flavour the Gnocchi in many ways as well as a huge range of sauces.
As for making them at home its the only way to go.
