Instructions

Cook the potatoes until soft, peel them and press them while still hot through the potato press onto a lightly floured baking board. Salt lightly, add the egg and knead with the flour, using just enough flour until the dough no longer sticks to your fingers. Take an egg-sized amount each and shape into a roll (approx. 1 1/2 cm in diameter). Cut off pieces approx. 2 cm long and roll them over the inside of a fork with your thumb.
Soak the gnocchi in plenty of boiling salted water and let stand for a few minutes (turn down the temperature). As soon as the gnocchi float on top, lift them out with a slotted spoon and drain well.
Toss in a pan with a little butter and serve with any sauce.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
