Cooking the Potatoes

Begin by cooking 150 grams of potatoes until they are tender. Once cooked, mash them thoroughly until smooth.

Making the Dough

In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with 50 grams of all-purpose flour, 1 medium egg (approximately 50 grams), and a pinch of salt (1 gram). Mix well until a soft dough forms.

Forming the Gnocchi

On a floured surface, roll the dough into long ropes, then cut into small, bite-sized pieces. To give them the traditional gnocchi shape, press each piece lightly with a fork.

Cooking the Gnocchi

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi pieces and cook until they float to the surface, indicating they are done. Drain them well.

Adding the Cheese

Transfer the cooked gnocchi to a serving dish and sprinkle with 20 grams of grated Parmesan cheese. The warmth of the gnocchi will help melt the cheese, creating a deliciously creamy coating.
