Hi lovely people, you can see the sun is down, the day moves away but before that
I want to make a gnocchi, so simple yes, potato gnocchi because I've got a lovely
traditional pesto, so easy. Here I have about half a kilogram of potato which
I'm going to sieve, inside you see that. I boiled some potato,
I removed the skin and I'll let it cool down a little bit, crush it, crush it.
If you don't have one of this use a potato masher, that will do it but do not put them
inside a kind of food processor which goes round, you think it's good?
No, you will get cream out of it. Come on, yes. Right it's done, let's put
this one away. Let me clean my hands nicely. You need a bit of salt yes,
very important you put bit of salt, 1 yolk of egg let's do it in here, it's all natural
just put inside and use about 150 grams of flour, make sure is good double zero flour.
First we start with a fork, yeah you grab everything and then don't
be afraid to use your hands, rub everything.
Look at that beauty, ah, oh oh, I know you're gonna get everything to stick to your hands
but doesn't matter you can wash it. Nearly there this is gonna be nice and soft,
yeah see that starts to get together, this stage okay, it's nearly done,
wash your hands, very very important because you don't want to stick anything
else on you. This is one is done, clean again now. Just put a little bit of
flour on the side like this okay, get the knife, cut it,
into little sausages, hey there's nothing to it!
Here I've got two lovely plates, here's the potato I keep some on the side, now you
roll it, it's so easy to do it look, when you roll it put them in the flour like this okay,
make sure there is not much flour when you roll it because if
there's too much flour you get stick, the gnocchi will
stick on to it and then we're slippery, here's another one, yes, come on,
hey yeah this is the best gnocchi, got it.
Just get me the flour on top and now you roll him in the flour
oh I love making gnocchi, put him on the side, so quick you can do it in minutes if you
have the pesto ready fantastic. Get the knife cut it, look at that, little 'Tocchetti' we call them
this is just enough for me, now you've got some lovely gnocchi ready to go.
Here let's put this one on top here, let's put a little bit of salt in the water.
The water, you have to really boil it and please don't put too many on just put enough
maximum a couple of portions, okay. I'm gonna put them in the sieve because I want to
grab them all and I want to move it, slowly put them in then I get the rest.
Just put them in, this is it, it's done, nothing else to it, let's put this one on top
in a bowl you put a couple of tablespoons of pesto
one I made earlier on, just a little bit.
Okay just a little bit of pasta water come on look, come inside here, let me show you
look they're already coming up, look how wonderful, how beautiful they are
look at inside here the little babies, they're all up here, go, come on they're ready soon as
they come up, 'Summertime' yes just put this side, just a little bit, do not fry the pesto
just put them all in, just move a little bit around
don't disturb it
there is no cooking involved, look how creamy they are.
So easy, incredible easy. Ah, this is what I call gnocchi. Don't put too much of everything
that is enough pesto, do not overdo it.
Let's put this on the side, get some lovely parmesan cheese, grate it on top
and this is gnocchi di patate, potato gnocchi with a classic Genovese pesto.
If you can do it please you do it, no you have to do it, half a kilogram of potato,
150 gram of the flour, pinch of salt, sieve or use a potato a ricer, lots of water
couple of potions at a time, come up, put in a salad bowl and hallelujah!
It's all for you, can you please, you make it and let me know, now I want to eat it.
It's so good, so fresh, so tasty, I'm gonna eat it. Oh there is a church there, hallelujah, oh yes!
Arrivederci, I'm gonna eat it now. Can you see me from far away?
It's almost dark where I'm going, I don't know, one thing I know, I'm gonna hide
behind the tree and then I don't have to give it to you!
Make it because you will love it. Bye. You can't see me.
All right, you win, you can have some, come on taste it, you won, nod.
Bless you, turn the camera around, don't laugh
Rachel, Richard, I don't know, I'm gonna skip you, see how soft it is, it's all yours.
