Method

  1. Making the gnocchi
  2. In a large pan, cover the unpeeled potatoes with boiling water salted water
  3. (Boiling in their skins prevents too much water being absorbed into the potatoes so try not to damage the skins)
  4. Bring back to the boil, cover and simmer for 25 minutes
  5. Drain, pat dry on a tea-towel and allow to cool so they can be handled safely
  6. Run the skins off and pass through a potato ricer or use a hand whisk to break up into a very fine mash. It's worth taking care over this you will have lumpy gnocchi
  7. Add the sifted flour and half of the beaten egg
  8. Knead with your hands to a soft dough, correcting with extra egg or flour if too wet or dry
  9. Transfer to a floured cutting board, dry and dust your hands with extra flour
  10. Divide into four and roll each piece into a sausage about 1 cm (1/2") diameter then cut into 2.5 cm (1") sections
  11. Using the times of a fork, press flat into each piece to make the sauce-holding pattern, the rougher the better, we want rustic!
  12. Cover and chill until required
  13. (Gnocchi does not keep well without discolouring so only make what you are going to use on the day)
  14. Cooking the gnocchi
  15. Warm a serving dish in the oven
  16. In a large pan, bring 4 litres (7 pints) of water to a simmer
  17. Add the gnocchi and cook for 3 minutes, they will float after 2 but still need another minute
  18. Drain, transfer to the warm serving dish and mix in the Parmesan cheese
  19. Making the sage and garlic butter
  20. In a small frying pan, heat the butter so it starts to froth
  21. Stir in the garlic and mix until it starts to colour. Don't let it burn
  22. Add the sage leaves and let the sage leaves crisp up
  23. Drizzle the sage and garlic butter butter over the gnocchi
  24. Serve immediately
