: "I Forgot to Generate a Random Number From 1-200!" Name: Gli Gnocci (an authentic italian dish) Ingredients- * 1 kg or 2 1/4 lb potatoes- try to find potatoes that are neither too floury, nor too waxy) * 1 egg * 300 g or 10 2/3 oz (2 cups) flour (OO flour - very fine flour; or plain flour, you may need more depending on the potatoes used) * rock salt * pepper * olive oil
Recipe: 1. Boil the potatoes. Place unpeeled potatoes into a large saucepan and add enough water to cover them. Place on a high heat, add 3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) of rock salt, then leave to boil. Check the "Warning" section below, however. 2. Drain potatoes. When the potatoes are tender, after about 20 minutes of boiling, turn the heat off and tip them into a colander to drain. 3. Peel the potatoes. To protect your hands, use a tea towel to hold the potatoes as you peel away the skins with a knife. 4. Mash the potatoes. Pass the still hot potatoes through a passatutto (or potato ricer). This method is recommended as air gets trapped in the potatoes making for a lighter gnocchi. If you don't have one you can, of course, use a masher but the end result won't be as good. 5. Add the egg and flour. Add 2 generous pinches of salt and a pinch of pepper. Crack the egg and stir in quickly before the temperature of the potato cooks it. Add 2 handfuls of the flour. Mix until it's all absorbed. 6. Form a dough. Turn the potato onto a wooden surface and tip the rest of the flour on top. Use your hands to mix it together. After a minute or two it will form into a dough. Knead lightly. When it reaches a pliable consistency, it's ready. 7. Form the gnocchi. Sprinkle the surface with flour. Slice a fist sized piece from the dough ball and roll out into lengths that are about 3 centimetres thick. Working quickly while the dough is still warm, use a flexible knife to cut off 2 centimetre pieces. Slice off another fist sized piece and repeat until you have used all of the dough. Place the gnocchi onto a tray, leaving a space between each piece to prevent them from sticking together. 8. Boil water. Fill a large pan with water and add 3 teaspoons of rock salt. Place over a high heat, put on the lid, and bring to the boil. 9. Tap the gnocchi from the tray into the boiling water. This method will stop the boiling water from splashing your hands. Give them a little stir and leave to cook. 10. Wait for them to reach the surface. When the gnocchi have all bobbed to the surface, they're ready to serve. Scoop them out with a sieve, shake off the water and transfer them to a tray. Drizzle a little oil over them and give the tray a shake. 11. Stir the gnocchi into a warm sauce of your choice. As a final touch, you can grate a little Pecorino cheese over the top. This dish works exceptionally well with a rosé wine.
