Ingredients
- 1 cup dry potato flakes (if in sweden you can use king edwards mos, but start with 1/2 a cup and add more if too watery)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (start with less 3/4 cup or so, add more only if too sticky)
Directions
- Place potato flakes in a medium-size bowl. Pour in boiling water; stir until blended. Let cool.
- Stir in egg, salt, and pepper. Blend in enough flour to make a fairly stiff dough. Turn dough out on a well floured board. Knead lightly.
-
Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a long thin roll, the thickness of a breadstick.
-
With a knife dipped in flour, cut into bite-size pieces.
-
Place a few gnocchi in boiling water. As the gnocchi rise to the top of the pot, remove them with a slotted spoon. Repeat until all are cooked.
