Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes, chilled or room temp
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
  • 1 large egg
  • Sauces for serving, such as marinara, brown butter or pesto

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, 1 cup flour and egg, mixing until combined.
  • Flour your work surface then turn the gnocchi dough out onto your work surface and knead it with your hands until it comes together into a ball and is no longer sticky. (Slowly incorporate additional flour as needed.)
  • Divide the ball into four pieces then roll each piece into a 1-inch-thick rope. Cut each rope into 1-inch gnocchi.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook them until they float to the top, about 2 minutes, then remove them with a slotted spoon and serve immediately with your preferred sauce.
