Gnocchi is definitely one of my favorite Italian meals and making it from scratch is so easy!
Boil one potato in water with a pinch of salt. One potato for each person eating is a good estimate of how much food to make. Pull out the potato when it is soft enough to mash and save the leftover water. Kneed in flour until the dough doesn't stick to your hands and fingers. Bring the leftover water to a boil while rolling the dough into tiny balls. Once the water is boiling, drop in the gnocchi and stir so they don't stick to the bottom of the pot. The gnocchi balls will rise to the top when they are cooked through after only a few minutes.
For the sauce, I simmer heavy whipping cream, gorgonzola cheese crumbles, and parmesan cheese. After about ten minutes, take the sauce off of the stove to let it cool.
YUM!
