Ingredients
2
Russert potatoes
medium sized, washed thoroughly
1/2
cup
unbleached self rising flour
+ 1 Tbsp more
1
Tbsp
almond milk
(optional)
2
Cups
Old World Style Traditional Ragu Sauce
Instructions
Boil about 5 cups of water. Do not put any salt or oil in the water.
Add the potatoes to the boiling water
Boil them for about 40 minutes and remove them from the water
Work quickly to peel potatoes because gnocchi is best when made with hot potatoes.
Use a potato ricer or cheese grater to crush the potato into a bowl
Sieve flour on the potato
Mix the dough and potato slowly, not overworking it.
I added 1 Tbsp of almond milk to make it more fluffy (optional)
Roll it into a cylindrical shape and then cover with a damp dish cloth for 10 minutes
While the dough is covered, boil about 8 cups of water
Cut the dough into about 4 inch pieces and roll them into cigar shapes. Keep the diameter as small as you can get it
Cut about 0.5 inch pieces from this cigar shape.
Roll them on a gnocchi board to get their trademark grooves.
Place the gnocchi in the boiling water
While the gnocchi are waiting to rise, heat a medium saucepan.
Add 2 cups of Ragu sauce to it and heat at low heat until the Gnocchi are ready
When the gnocchi begin to rise, take them out using a strainer
Place them directly into the Ragu sauce and stir
Serve immediately
