Directions:
Break up the cold mashed potatoes with your hands or a fork so they’re light and not densely packed. Add the egg and salt, gently mixing to combine. Sprinkle in 1 cup of flour and fold the mixture until a soft dough forms, adding up to 1/4 cup of flour only if the dough feels sticky. Divide the dough into four pieces, rolling each piece into a 3/4 inch rope and cut into 1-inch gnocchi. Optional: roll each piece over the back of a fork to create ridges. Set the gnocchi aside on a lightly floured surface. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. To make the sauce, heat Milanese Gremolata Olive Oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced shallot and cook for three to four minutes until soft and lightly caramelized. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, then deglaze the pan with white wine or vegetable broth simmering until the liquid has reduced by half. Stir in the butter or additional EVOO and season the sauce with salt and pepper. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water cooking them until they float to the surface, about one to two minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and transfer them to the skillet, tossing gently to coat them in the sauce. Serve warm and finish with lemon zest or Parmesan if desired. Enjoy! |
