How to Make POTATO GNOCCHI
INGREDIENTS:
For the dough:
1kg/35,2 oz potatoes
300g/ 10,5 oz plain flour
1 egg
For the sauce:
EVOO
Carrot (chopped into small cubes)
Onion (chopped into small cubes)
Celery
Basil
Sea salt
Tomato
METHOD:
To start making Gnocchi peel the potatoes and boil them for about 10 minutes, until they are nice and soft
Vincenzo’s tip: This is the most important step in the recipe! Don’t over boil the potatoes or they won’t be the right consistency for gnocchi.
Once boiled, strain them and squash them through the potato masher.
Then spread the potatoes out slightly on the wooden board using a fork, so they can cool down.
Vincenzo’s tip: it is very important to make gnocchi when the potatoes are at room temperature, don’t make the mistake to make them when they’re still hot.
While the potatoes cool down it’s time to start making the sauce by putting a saucepan on the stove filled with a nice amount of EVOO.
Then put the carrot and onion previously cut into the pan too.
Once the carrot and onion are cooked, add the tomato with a couple of basil leaves, celery and sea salt and let it cook for about 30 minutes.
Now, while the tomato sauce is cooking, go back to the potatoes which have now cooled down, and make a well in the middle of them, before cracking an egg into it.
Start mixing the egg with the potatoes first, (using a fork or your hands) and then add the flour, just a small amount at a time, and mix it through by beginning to knead the dough.
Massage it as much as possible until you get the right consistency.
Vincenzo’s tip: Add extra flour if you feel that the dough is too soft - just not too much at a time!
Once you’re happy with the consistency, you should have been able to create the form of what looks like a large single gnocchi!
Cut a small portion of the potato gnocchi dough and, using the palms of your hands, roll it out, back and forth into a long coil.
Using a knife, start cutting the coil in small pieces, on a diagonal - this will give you Nonna’s shape!
As you roll out and cut your gnocchi, always leave the dough covered underneath a large bowl, so it doesn’t dry out.
The potato gnocchi should be put into a flat tray, covered with flour at the bottom so they don’t stick.
Add a sprinkle of flour to the top of the gnocchi once they are added into the tray.
Repeat steps 11- 15 until you finish using all of your dough.
Now it’s time to cook them! Bring about 5L of water to boil in a large pot and add a sprinkle of rock salt.
Gently drop the gnocchi in making sure not to stir them or you might squash them!
Once gnocchi have risen to the top, wait about 1 1/2 minutes and then strain them using a large colander.
Nonna Igea’s tip: If you are making a large batch, when they have all risen up, turn off the stove and add a glass (or two) of cold water, so that the gnocchi don’t become too soft before being strained!

Join my TOURS in Italy and have dinner at Nonna www.vincenzosplate.com/italian-tour/
It is universal across all cultures:
Granny/Nonna has the best recipes ♥️
That’s so true!! no one can beat Nonna’s cooking! ❤️
Oh boy, did I experience this too! My grandma was Italian and had the best tomato sauce recipe. Nobody made it like she did!
Imagine eating such wholesome food - no wonder your 96 year old grand dame looks young so good for her age!
You're so right Priscilla, I fully agree!
Ya, doesn’t look a day over 95 🤣😂😆
I thought she was max like 82 years old WOW
Neh, she looks like she's in her 70's!!! Gorgeous lady, amazing cook!!!
@@carriemartinez2933 he’s talking about the older lady in the chair. Not the chef
This video brought tears to my eyes. The way you are with your Nonna! I miss my Nana so much. We used to make gnocci together but I can never remember the proper amounts of potatoes or flour to use. We never wrote down recipes or used measuring cups. Everything was by eyeballing and memory. Now that I saw yours, I can visualize what to do! (And you SAY it like we do, too!)
Thank you for this video. I think I enjoyed you interacting with your Nonna more than anything. And the way you brushed her cheek at the end, that's love! So sweet. Melted my heart! ❤️🙏

Mandy your words touch my heart. ❤️ My nonna is a piece of my heart, and I love spending time with her and learning from her! We have a lot of fun cooking together and I will never thank her enough for this! When comments like yours arrive, I can only be happy, because I love the fact that from the videos you can understand the love I feel for my nonna! 😍 I thank you with all my heart for these beautiful words! ❤️
It feel the same way, I miss my Nonna. They are the heart of the family and don't take the time you have with them for granted, learn and pass it on. We do not respect our elders as we should, our loss. God Bless you all.
3/4 potato 1/4 fluor ;)
... but reading 'gnocci' hurts. It's 'gnocchi'. Hugs!
She’s so cute! I wish I could leave 2 thumbs up for nonna! 💗
Vincenzo I’m great & hope you are doing well! 😊
👍🏻👍🏻
Nonna knows what is up! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, ya'll!
The way you treat your family translates into your cooking!!! I’m so impressed with the passion you and your family has for food...it is all combined into life!!
Thank you so much ❤️ you're so kind Keith!
My nonna have passed on her passion for cooking to me ☺️
@@vincenzosplate I made your passata today exactly the way your recipe video describes how to make it! I’m going to use it for everything I can. I also made your Bolognese and put it on some great quality egg noodles excuse me for I forget the name egg noodles and it was absolutely amazing with pecorino cheese on top! Absolutely the best thing I’ve ever made!!
A cute Italian lady praying the Holy Rosary...
Aw thank you so much Bianca ❤️❤️
I LOVE YOU NONNA, YOU ARE GORGEOUS!! You remind me if my own Nonna, when I made gnocchi with her 30 years ago. I love your recipes, please keep going on the authentic food becauce no one cooks like this anymore. Love you guy's 🤗😀❤💜💖
Hey Nonna, how much parmesan do you use?
Nonna: Sì
😂😂
They look fantastic! My mom used to make them back in the '60's and 70's and she would finely slice basil and knead it into her dough. I loved watching her do it, it was joy, comfort and tradition with her mother. Thank you for bringing back those memories.😙💜
Oh wow, she added basil in the dough, amazing🙈😋 I have to try this version, because nonna only add basil leaves in the tomato sauce . Thank you.
@@vincenzosplate Would love to know what you think if you try it. I never trust anyone who won't share a recipe. Who treat them as 'secret'. I feel cooking is a labor of love and it needs to be generously spread around.😊
Nonna is a Michelin Star Chef in our hearts ❤️
absolutely ❤
Thank you for making me feel like I have my family and grandmother again... You have a wonderful Nonna and you are an amazing family! Ran into this channel by accident an hour ago. Keep up a good job! Awesome! My Russian grandma used to make a similar type of potato pasta.
@@vincenzosplate Thank you! I definitely will make your Nonna's gnocchi, no doubts about that! As for my grandma's recipe, I don't think I remember it anymore, but your recipe made me think of my grandma's recipe because it is pretty similar! Thank you for bringing back that memory! :)
All this is the reason why the kitchen is the ❤️ and soul of a loving home.
❤️
Chuckling at how Nonna knows how to instantly bring out Vincenzo’s inner 12 year old. Can’t you just feel the love?❤️ Made my day!😊
Nonna is wonderful.
Brings back wonderful memories of watching my Nonna cook.
Vincenzo I love seeing you cook with your Nonna she cooks unbelievable I love all the recipes you do together keep up the great work God bless you and your family🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Grazie John 🙏🏻 I love cooking with nonna 😍 she taught me soooo many recipes!
These are the best potato gnocchi I have ever eaten. So light and fluffy! I think the difference is putting the potatoes in the food mill and using Tipo 00 flour instead of all purpose flour. I did weigh the potatoes and flour too. And I love cutting them on a diagonal. Such a prettier shape than usual. I made half of the recipe by cutting the dry ingredients in half. Of course I still used one egg. They were perfect. I think I will use two eggs when I make the whole recipe as written. Thank you for this wonderful video.
Wow 😍 I’m so happy you tried and loved my recipe! My nonna is definitely the gnocchi’s Queen 👑 and I was sure you would like them! 😋😋 thank you so much
I wish I had a nonna like yours, you are so lucky... I love watching your family..makes my heart fill with love ❤🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
@@vincenzosplate 💖
I’m wanting to make this myself, and enjoyed seeing your nonna prepare this with you. So sweet! Brings me back to cooking with my grandma. ❤️❤️
Homemade pasta always brings back great memories ❤️
Watching Italians cook is a real therapy.

So very fortunate to still have mother to love.
she's my grandmother, and I'm really lucky, I know ❤️

Looks easy, I'm gonna give it a shot this weekend.
Amazing! Please make this recipe and let us know 😍

Grandmothers are simply the best.
My Nonna is 99 years old, she cannot cook any longer, but she thought me how to and that it is a great thing to cook together, as a family. Table, cooking, food, bring people together!
😍😍😍I love your nona and what she cooked👍🏼👍🏼

@@vincenzosplate 😂 yes I will 🤗😍
Respect to the Nonna 🇮🇹 ❤
thank you so much ❤️
Grazie, Nonna!
and Supervisor! :)
Haha thank you Elizabeth ❤️
Double zero flour? No? Not regular flour in America. This makes a big difference. Thank you for this beautiful recipe, Nona!
Vincenzos Plate When I make pizza dough if I use doppio zero flour I have to add less water to the mix otherwise the dough is too wet. It’s a finer grind and can make a difference in some recipes. The finished product is lighter and crispier. You can use double zero in place of standard grind all purpose American but adjustments in weight must be made. Here is an article that explains it fairly well. www.thekitchn.com/whats-the-deal-with-00-flour-108281
Please add more videos with your Nonna! Wonderful
Love it my ftind love it bring her yo Puerto Rico so she can enjoy puerto rican food
Porto rico' food is amazing
@@vincenzosplate any time my friend anytime
Fantastica la nonna! Questo fine settimana li faccio anche io!

Cooked a gnocchi before, it was so delicious.

@@vincenzosplate I followed the recipe that was taught to me in culinary school, but I'm going to try your grandma's someday.
Exactly how my Nano used to make it!
Il Gran Sasso è il migliore!
Oh wow 😍 this is great
Hello Vincenzo! Thank you for your videos and I love to see you and Nonna cook.
I wonder, doesn’t the basil die when you cook it in the tomato sauce?
Thank you. She is the best. Nonnas adds the basil in the cooking process and at the end when the sauce is finished. Maybe I didnt put it in the video but its an important step
I enjoyed this and watching you and your Grandmother.
Thank you so much Margaret! Are you going to make homemade Gnocchi? 😋
@@vincenzosplate Yes, I have tried before but they came out heavy so I will follow these instructions.
Belissima ricetta
