INGREDIENTS:
FOR THE GNOCCHI:
250 g potatoes (preferably red)
75 g of 00 flour
1 egg
Salt to taste
FOR THE CREAM:
50 g Parmesan cheese
30 g potatoes
50 ml milk
25 g butter
A pinch of nutmeg
Balsamic Condiment
PREPARATION:
Wash the potatoes and, still in their skins, put them in a pot with salted water and let them boil. At the end of boiling, still hot, peel them, mash them and put them on a floured work surface. Add a pinch of salt and the flour, and knead until the mixture is firm but soft.
Then add the egg and continue to knead until no lumps are left and the dough is compact. Divide the dough into 3 cm high strips and cut the gnocchi, placing them on a floured tray. To create the lines on the gnocchi, simply slide them onto the fork and press lightly. Let the gnocchi rest for 20 minutes and then cook them in a large pot of salted water.
In the meantime prepare the Parmesan cream: melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat and add the milk, the mashed potatoes and the Parmesan. Towards the end of cooking, add a pinch of nutmeg. Finally, blend everything together. Drain the gnocchi when they rise to the surface and add them to the cream cheese. Serve and pour in the Balsamic Dressing. Finish with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
