Step 1

Boil your potatoes for 30 minutes or until soften. Peal them and set aside.

Step 2

On a clean surface, mash your potatoes with a potato ricer, add flour, egg and a pinch o salt.

Step 3

Knead everything with your hands until you get a soft but compact dough.

Step 4

Make sure you don’t knead it too much, otherwise your gnocchi will become hard once cooked.

Step 5

Cut a piece of your dough and roll it into a sausage then slice it into 2 cm length pieces.

Step 6

Boil your gnocchi in some salted water until they come to surface.

Step 7

In the meantime, toast your black pepper in a pan over medium-low heat, then add a ladleful of boiling water.

Step 8

Add your boiled gnocchi in and toss well over the heat to combine all the flavours together, adding some more drops of boiling gnocchi water.

Step 9

Turn the heat off and add your grated Pecorino cheese little by little, stirring vigorously.

Step 10

Alternate it with a few more drops of gnocchi water and keep stirring until you form a cream.

Step 11

Serve with some more black pepper on top. Buon appetito!
