I have not tried this recipe yet, but I intend to soon. According to the article, that came with the recipe in this morning's local newspaper, these gnocchi are light as a feather. The recipe comes from a former fine dining establishment in our area that we used to go to very often and the food was outstanding! I am guessing at the prep and cook times.
OK - I'd LOVE to give this 4 1/2 stars, but RZ wouldn't let me... This recipe is ALMOST perfect! One thing you must remember when making this is that you DO NOT want it to get "dough-like" . Be careful not to add too much flour, let the dough be sticky (yes, you'll get some on your hands!).. That seems to be the only secret to make these absolutely perfect! My first batch was a bit too floury... second batch... perfect! Also feel free to sub leftover mashed 'taters from dinner for the potato portion....
Thanks, Marie, this was WONDEFUL.. and made a FANTASTIC dinner with a nice simple browned-butter sage/garlic sauce!!! Oh, Heck... I'll give it FIVE stars... After all, the ingredients and instructions were pretty much foolproof!

Wonderful!
My 2 year old eats these straight from the colander!
I used ghee instead of clarified butter (same thing I think).
I had previously tried this recipe using olive oil instead of the clarified butter and parmesan instead of romano cheese but the texture wasn't as light.
I used Pecorino Romano cheese.
I devised a quick and easy method for making these:
made the dough in my Kenwood Chef
first using the whisk beater to beat the potato and eggs and then using the dough hook when I added the other ingredients. I processed it until the dough was smooth.
Then I rolled the dough out on a floured board using a rolling pin until it was about 1/2 inch thick.
Next, I used a pizza wheel to cut the dough criss-cross, making little squares.
Much easier than rolling and cutting individual squares.
This way I can make and cook these in under 20min!

This recipe is, by far, the best gnocchis we have ever had. We like to think of ourselves as gnocchi experts but these are the best I have ever had in any fine dining Italian I've been to and I've been to many across this country. I cannot keep these in the freezer. As soon as I make them, my husband and son eat them up. Thanks so much. This is a keeper.
