Gnocchi

I was in the mood to make something really good for dinner out of stuff I already had and I came up with gnocchi. I quickly found that this fabulous Italian dish is incredibly simple!












1. Boil 3 peeled and cut potatoes in salted water until soft (yet still firm). Drain and mash
2. Let cool. Then add 1 egg, a touch of butter, and 1 cup of flour. Knead.
3. Roll into "snakes" on a floured surface. Cut in 1/2 inch pieces. Roll into balls. Boil for 3-5 minutes or until they all float to the surface of the water.

Serve with sauce.

(Don't eat too many...they get pretty heavy in your stomach!)
