Preparation method

Peel the potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces to cook faster. Place them in salted water and boil until tender (approximately 15-20 minutes). After boiling, drain them and let them cool slightly.

Mash the cooked potatoes until you get a fine, lump-free texture. Add the flour, egg, salt, and, optionally, a pinch of nutmeg. Knead by hand until you get a homogeneous dough. It should be soft but not sticky. If it's too sticky, add a little more flour, but carefully, so the gnocchi don't become too tough.

Divide the dough into several parts. Roll each part on a floured surface until you get a cylinder with a diameter of approximately 1.5 cm. Cut the cylinder into small pieces about 2 cm long. For the traditional look, you can gently press each piece with a fork to create those ridges that will better hold the sauce.
