Ingredients:
2 lbs baking potatoes |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1 whole egg, plus |
1 egg yolk, lightly beaten |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened |
1 teaspoon salt |
freshly grated parmesan cheese |
tomato sauce |
Directions:
1. Boil the potatoes in their jackets, drain, peel and put through a ricer or food mill.
2. While the potatoes are still warm, blend in the flour, add the egg, egg yolk, butter and salt.
3. Place the potato mixture on a floured board and knead lightly; the dough will be soft.
4. Roll the dough in 1 thick sticks about 10 long.
5. Cut each roll into 3/4 pieces.
6. Rub each piece of dough lightly over the coarse side of a cheese grater over a large pot of boiling salted water.

8. Using a slotted spoon, remove the gnocchi to a warm bowl.
