Italian potato gnocchi
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. These gnocchi can be served with sauce, cheese, or herbs, either as a main course or as a side dish, for example. The amount of flour needed depends on the type of potato; the dough should be firm enough to handle easily. Don't hesitate to make a larger batch right away—gnocchi freeze wonderfully. The finished dish can now be served.
