Stop buying store-bought gnocchi. Most people have never had real gnocchi like this.
Homemade potato gnocchi are soft, pillowy, and easier to make than you think — and once you try them tossed in tomato sauce, mozzarella, Parmigiano, and baked into Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, there’s no going back.
This classic dish straight from Campania is the definition of Italian comfort food.

3 Ingredient Wonder – Episode 4: GNOCCHI
Continuing the series where I prepare easy and delicious recipes using just 3 main ingredients (or less) plus pantry essentials.
This time, a timeless Italian classic made from scratch: soft, pillowy potato gnocchi. Full recipe below!
INGREDIENTS (serves 2)
• Cooked potatoes (riced) – 350 g
• Flour – 150–200 g
• Egg – 1
• Salt – a pinch
PROCEDURE
Start by ricing the cooked potatoes while they’re still warm and place them in a bowl. Add the egg and a pinch of salt, then gently mix to combine.
Gradually add the flour, a little at a time, until everything is fully incorporated and you have a soft, smooth dough. Be careful not to overwork it.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface, flatten it slightly, then cut it into portions. Roll each portion into long ropes (“snakes”), place them next to each other, and use a bench scraper to cut into gnocchi.
Roll each piece over a gnocchi board (or fork) to give it texture. Cook immediately in salted boiling water until they float, or freeze them on a tray and transfer to a bag once frozen for later use.
Buon appetito! 🍝✨
Easy Handmade Ricotta Gnocchi
Quick, easy and so delicious, best cooked straight after making.
Serves 2 as a main.
Recipe:
• 250g full-fat fresh, creamy ricotta
• ¾ cup freshly grated parmesan
• 1 large egg, whisked
• 1 egg yolk, whisked
• Pinch of salt & black pepper
• ¾-1 cup “00” flour
Mix:
Combine everything except the flour in a bowl.
Add ¾ cup flour and mix until you get a very sticky dough that still holds its shape.
(Stickier dough = softer gnocchi.)
Add extra flour 1 tbsp at a time only if needed.
Flour your bench, scrape the dough onto it, flour your hands and shape it into a 2.5cm/ 1” thick disc. Cut into 8 wedges.
Roll each wedge into a log, then cut into 1.5cm pieces. Press each piece gently with the back of a fork to help catch the sauce.
Roll each wedge into a log, then cut into 1.5cm pieces. Press each piece gently with the back of a fork to help catch the sauce.
Cook:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Drop in the gnocchi, once they rise and float wait about 30 seconds then scoop them out.
Toss with your favourite sauce and serve immediately.
Enjoy! 😊

Gnocchi alla sorrentina 🔥
Making gnocchi is very fun and actually very easy!
I remember working in one of the best (the best) pasta restaurants in London and having to make 3kg of gnocchis a day! It wasn’t that fun anymore after a few weeks 😂
But making them at home is very satisfying!
Give it a go!
Ingredients :
For the gnocchi:
•baking potatoes 1kg
-> massage with oil and salt
-> poke some holes in the skin
-> bake at 180 degrees for 45/50min
-> pass through a sieve or a ricer
•3 egg yolks
•150g plain flour ( you can add more but too much flour makes the gnocchis too chewy. Try to put just enough so you can roll the dough without it sticking too much to your fingers)
• good pinch of salt
For the sauce:
•Extra virgin olive oil (don’t be shy)
•3 cloves of garlic
•basil stems
•700g passata
•100g water (enough to rinse the passata bottle)
•salt and pepper
•1 tbsp sugar
->boil the gnocchis in salted water for 1 or 2 min, until they start floating at the surface and combine with the sauce.
To finish:
•basil leaves
•mozzarella di buffala x2
•parmigiano reggiano
Bake for 15/20 min
Bon appétit 🙏

A reminder that if you have ricotta and flour, you can make gnocchi. That’s it! ✨
These 2-ingredient ricotta gnocchi are soft, pillowy, and perfect for a quick and cozy lunch.
Ingredients:
1 cup ricotta (250 g)
1.5 cup flour (190 g)
Instructions:
1. Drain the ricotta cheese to remove excess liquid.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained ricotta cheese and flour. Use a ratio of approximately 1 cup of ricotta to 1.5 cup of flour, adjusting as needed to achieve a workable dough.
3. Gently knead the mixture until it forms a smooth dough.
4. Divide the dough into smaller portions. Roll each portion into long logs, about 1/2 inch in diameter.
5. Using a knife or dough scraper, cut the logs into 1-inch pieces.
6. If desired, roll each piece over a pasta board or the back of a fork to create ridges, which help the sauce cling to the gnocchi.
7. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
8. Toss the cooked gnocchi with a simple tomato sauce and serve immediately. Buon Appetito!

PASTA MONDAY 🍝✨
Guys… today is a seriously special one!
Gnocchi alla Sorrentina is a true Italian classic. 🇮🇹
But these? They’re made with ricotta. 😋
Lighter, softer, and honestly… you could eat a ridiculous amount of them.
Melty inside, slightly crispy on top, pure comfort in a baking dish. This will become your new signature dish. Trust me. 💫
⸻
For the ricotta gnocchi:
🥛 Ricotta
🥚 1 egg
🌾 Flour
🧂 A pinch of salt
For the sauce:
🧄 Garlic & pepper
🍅 Tomato passata
🌿 Fresh basil
🧂 Salt
🫒 Extra virgin olive oil
To finish:
🧀 Mozzarella Fior di latte
🧀 Grated Grana
👩🏻🍳 Method:
1. Mix ricotta, egg, flour and salt until you get a soft but workable dough.
2. Roll into logs, cut into small pieces and shape your gnocchi.
3. In a pan, sauté garlic in olive oil, add the tomato passata, salt and basil. Let it simmer until rich and fragrant.
4. Bring salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi. Once they float, they’re ready.
5. Transfer them straight into the sauce. Add mozzarella cubes and grated Grana. Mix well.
6. Move everything into a baking dish, top with more mozzarella and Grana.
7. Grill in the oven for about 4 minutes, until golden and slightly crispy on top.
And they come out…
✨ melty
✨ creamy
✨ perfectly golden.
Save it. Make it. Thank me later. 🤍
