Step 1

Boil the potatoes until they are really soft.

Step 2

When the potatoes are ready, strain and let them cool for few minutes.

Step 3

Smash the pealed potatoes in a large bowl. Add a handful of parmesan, some salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix with a wooden spoon for a minute. Add then the potato flour and the plain flour and mix again.

Step 4

Work now the dough with your hands until the flour is absorbed. If the mixture is too wet, add some more plain flour. The amount of flour depends on how much watery the potatoes are.

Step 5

Take part of the dough and roll it on a dry surface. It might be better to use a wooden surface with some flour on it. Roll the dough and give it a cilindric shape. Cut the cilinder in pieces, as big as you like your gnocchi. You can reshape the dough if you wish.

Step 6

Leave the gnocchi rest for few hours before to use them. You can leave them on the wooden surface or a dishcloth. Turn the gnocchi around after a while and poor some flour on them if they are still too wet.

Step 7

When you have to cook your gnocchi, just ease them down in boily and salty water until they come up on the surface.
