Ingredients

1 pound potatoes

Salt & pepper

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1 cup flour

1 egg

4 tbsp butter

1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese

Directions

Peel potatoes and cut them into 1" pieces. Put in a saucepan, cover with cold salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender. Drain and return the pan to the heat for a few minutes to dry the potatoes. Rub potatoes through a course sieve into a large bowl. Season with salt & pepper before mixing in the nutmeg and the flour. Beat the egg and stir it into the potatoes, usaing a wooden spoon; blend until smooth.

Turn the mixture onto a floured working surface and knead lightly. With lightly floured hands, shape the mixture into a roll about 1" thick. Cut into 24 even pieces and shape them into balls.

Bring a large pan of water to a boil. Drop in the gnocchi, a few at a time, and simmer for 5 minutes. When cooked, the gnocchi will rise to the surface. Lift them out carefully with a slotted spoon and put in a warm buttered serving dish.

While the last of the gnocchi are cooking, melt the 4 tbsp of butter and pour over gnocchi. Sprinkle with the grated cheese before serving.

Or: Can also be served with tomato sauce instead of butter.

Bake (rather than boil) the potatoes, scoop the meat out of the skins as soon as they come out of the oven -- I figure that it reduces the amount of water in the potatoes which should result in a more delicate result (plus you can eat the skins while the potatoes cool).
