Steps

1

Boil Potatoes with the skin on, for 20 to 40 minutes
2

Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle but still warm before removing the Potatoes skin.
3

Mash the Potatoes with a potato masher or fork.
4

Whisk the Egg and Salt. Add the egg mixture to the potatoes.
5

Knead the Gluten-Free Flour into the potato mixture with your hands while the potato is still warm. Do not over-knead as the dough will become sticky.
6

The dough is soft but firm. Divide the dough into 4. By hand, on a floured surface roll the dough into a long rope, about 1cm in diameter. Cut the roll into 2cm pieces.

Make an imprint on the gnocchi with a fork or your thumb.
8

Set the gnocchi aside to rest at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes.
9

10

Place a few gnocchi at a time into the boiling water, stirring gently once or twice. The gnocchi is cook when they have risen to the surface.
11

Remove the gnocchi with a slotted spoon from the boiling water. Repeat step 10 until all the gnocchi is cooked.

Mix the gnocchi into your favourite pasta souse.
