Preparing the Potato Gnocchi Dough

Start by boiling and mashing half a kilogram of potatoes. Add a pinch of salt, an egg, and 150 grams of double zero flour to create the dough.

Mix the ingredients with a fork until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to prevent the gnocchi from becoming too dense.

Shape the dough into small sausages and cut them into bite-sized pieces to form the gnocchi.

Cooking the Gnocchi with Pesto

Boil the gnocchi in salted water until they float to the surface, indicating they are cooked.

Toss the cooked gnocchi with homemade pesto sauce and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese for a flavorful finish.
