Gnocchi with Truffle Butter Red Wine Ju - Sam Campbell, Chef

1kg potato (agria, floury type)

6 egg yolks, 1 extra

1 cup grated Parmesan

1/2 tsp grated nutmeg

1 tbsp flaky salt

2 cup flour

—————————————————————————

On oven tray large enough to hold potatoes sprinkle enough rock salt
Add potatoes and roast 180-200C for 45-60min til a well cooked (skin will be crisp), cool 10min
Cut in half and scoop flesh w spoon
Put flesh thru a ricer, mouli or grate on box grater
Make a well in the mound, add eggs cheese and seasoning, mix with fingers into the potato
Sprinkle 1/2 cup flour over the mix, fold the dough over & onto itself a couple times, sprinkling remaining flour each time/fold. Try not to knead it. If too dry add extra egg or water.
Dough will give under slight pressure. It will feel firm but yielding.
To test dough, roll a ripe size portion with hands on floured board. If holds together it is ready, if not add more flour to the dough and press and fold again a few times. Test again.
Shape gnocchi by cutting and rolling cup/baseball size dough pieces into long ropes. Cut at intervals that suit you. Leave on floured work space.
Bring large pot of salted water to boil, plunge batches of gnocchi into it, when they rise to surface for around 1min further. Remove into a large bowl with iced water. Drain and and toss with olive oil to prevent sticking
