Ingredients
6 large russet potatoes
2 cups Wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
2 cups Wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
1 large egg
1 dash salt
1/2 cup canola oil
2 cups tomato sauce
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 dash salt
1/2 cup canola oil
2 cups tomato sauce
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
Boil the whole potatoes until they are soft about 45 minutes. Take off the skin of the potatoes. With a potato masher mash the potatoes until there are no lumps. Add the oil and mash again.
Bring to a boil 6 quarts of water in a large spaghetti pot.
Make well in center of potatoes and sprinkle all over with flour, using all the flour. Place egg and salt in center of well and using a fork, stir into flour and potatoes, just like making normal pasta. Once egg is mixed in, bring dough together, kneading gently until a ball is formed. Knead gently another 4 minutes until ball is dry to touch.
On a chopping board dust flour on board. Roll the dough so it’s snakelike long and somewhat skinny. With a knife cut into thin slices and place into boiling water. They will initially sink. When they float to the surface they are done. Take them out and drain them.

I learned how to make gnocchi in 1979. My friends family was from Northern Italy and I learned how to make it from them.
