Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. potatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 8 oz. fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

Instructions

  • Peel and boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and mash them.
  • Add the flour, egg, salt, and pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix well to form a dough.
  • Divide the dough into 4 parts. Roll each part into a long rope, about 1 inch thick.
  • Cut the ropes into 1-inch pieces. Press each piece with a fork to create ridges.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
  • In a separate pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes and basil to the pan. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Add the cooked gnocchi to the tomato sauce. Mix well.
  • Transfer the gnocchi and sauce to a baking dish. Top with sliced mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
