Gnocchi is an easy pantry meal that is made with three main ingredients.<\/p>\n

Hello, everyone.\u00a0 We have another pantry meal for you today, and this one is a favorite.\u00a0 I first had gnocchi when I was in college.\u00a0 I had an Italian roommate my senior year, and her mother made gnocchi for us.\u00a0 It was so good.\u00a0 Ever since then I have eaten it every time it is on the menu when we eat out.\u00a0 However, as much as I wanted to, I never learned to make it……until now that is.\u00a0 Gnocchi is so very good and only takes three ingredients – mashed potatoes, flour, and egg.\u00a0 That’s it.\u00a0 Now, there is a little finesse required to get the shape just right, and you will see that I still need some practice there, but I mastered every other part of this easy recipe.\u00a0 Today I am going to show you how to make gnocchi.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup mashed potatoes (you can use leftovers or make them fresh.)\u00a0 Add to that 2 cups of all purpose flour and combine well.\u00a0 I used a pastry blender.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then add one egg and mix.\u00a0 Once they are mixed, knead a few times to get everything well combined.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then put this dough on a floured surface and roll into a long log, kind of like you do with Play Dough.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then cut into 1 inch pieces.\u00a0 Dip a fork in flour and roll it around each piece to make indentations.\u00a0 This helps the sauce adhere to the pasta when you are eating.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Drop each piece into salted boiling water, and boil until they rise to the top.\u00a0 This takes about 3 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Remove from the water and drain.\u00a0 Add your favorite topping.\u00a0 You will find lots of recipes and suggestions for toppings at allrecipes.com<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> but I just added grated Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper since I made it for lunch one day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I am so happy that I finally decided how to learn to make gnocchi.\u00a0 It’s one of my favorite pastas, and I have avoided making it all of these years.\u00a0 This recipe makes a lot, and so I froze some to use later.\u00a0 Enjoy this recipe, everyone.<\/p>\n

Take care.<\/p>\n
