1-Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes First, bake the potatoes until tender. Once cool, peel and mash them until smooth to avoid any lumps that could make the dough tough.

2-Step 2: Mix the Dough On a lightly floured surface, spread the mashed potatoes, form a well, and add the beaten egg and salt. Gradually mix in the flour to form a soft dough, kneading minimally to keep it tender.

3-Step 3: Shape the Gnocchi Divide the dough into eight pieces, roll each into a rope about 1 inch thick, and cut into ¾-inch pieces. Press each piece with a fork to create ridges for better sauce grip.
