Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes
1/4 cup puréed vegetables (spinach, kale, beets, etc)
2 cups all-purpose flour, more for work surface
1 large egg
2 teaspoons sea salt
Directions
-
Peel potatoes and chop evenly. Similar sizes will allow for even cooking time. Add to a pot and cover with water. Boil until tender, about 30-40 minutes.
-
Immediately mash or pass through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Use a fork to ensure there are no lumps.
-
Once smooth, add flour, salt, puréed vegetables, and egg. Combine.
-
Sprinkle the work surface with flour. Place the dough on the work surface and knead until soft, roughly 2-3 minutes.
-
Divide the dough into equal pieces, rolling out into ropes, about 1/2 inch thick.
-
Use a sharp paring knife to cut into 1/2 inch pieces. Roll the gnocchi across the back of a fork to give it the characteristic grooves.
-
Cook gnocchi in a large pot of salted water until they float, about 2 minutes.
-
Coat in sauce and enjoy.
