Gnocchi with tomato sauce

My gnocchi are no longer hard and heavy, but instead fluffy, soft and tasty. The key is the right amount of flour and potatoes. And of course the tomato sauce, without which it wouldn't be the right gnocchi.

1. Step

Peel, boil and mash the potatoes. When they are still warm, add flour, egg, salt, pepper and let the resulting dough rest for at least 30 minutes.

2. Step

Roll the dough into thin strips and cut into small pieces. Then, using a fork, fluff each piece to create the characteristic gnocchi shape.

3. Step

In a saucepan, cook the gnocchi in salted water - about 3 minutes, until they float to the top.

4. Step

Melt the butter in a pan, add the chopped cherry tomatoes and some basil leaves. Then fry the cooked gnocchi in this sauce.

5. Step

Before serving, sprinkle the gnocchi with freshly grated cheese.
