House Made Gnocchi

Delicious, pillowy homemade gnocchi made from potatoes and flour, served with a savory tomato sauce.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Boil the potatoes until they are soft, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them and pass them through a potato ricer into a large bowl.
Add the flour, egg, and salt to the bowl and mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.
Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope, about 1 inch in diameter.
Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces to form the gnocchi.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2 minutes.
Drain the gnocchi and toss them with the tomato sauce.
Serve the gnocchi topped with the grated Parmesan and chopped basil.
