Easy Potato Gnocci



This recipie is delish, super easy and fun to make on a cold winters evening!

4 Large potatoes
1 Cup plain Flour
2 Eggs
60g Softened Butter

Cook potatoes in boiling water. Drain and mash. Add eggs and flour, mix together. Add salt and butter, mix together and add more flour as necessary to ensure it is not too sticky as you will need to knead it and more flour is useful to stop it sticking all over your hands and bench! Knead away until it is a soft ball and not sticky and cut and roll into little balls. Add to a pot of boiling salted water a bunch at a time, they only take a few minutes to cook, you know when they're ready when they float to the top of the pot. Add to a tomoato sauce : Onion, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, courgette, fresh herbs and let it simmer away adding salt and pepper. Sprinke with fresh parsley and parmesan  cheese. Enjoy!
