Comment préparer Basil Gnocchi

Peel 1 lb of potatoes and cut into chunks. Steam or boil until cooked through and tender (about 15-20 minutes).
While potatoes cook, blend 2 cups packed fresh basil leaves with 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil in a food processor until smooth.
Once potatoes are cooked, mash them with a fork. Add 2 tablespoons of butter, salt, and pepper to taste. Mash until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Set aside for a few minutes to cool slightly, until the potatoes are warm but not too hot to handle.
Stir in the basil and olive oil mixture.
Gradually add 2 cups of all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 5 minutes, adding more flour as needed until the dough is soft, pliable, and not sticky.
Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long, thin rope (about 1/2 inch thick). Cut the ropes into 1-inch pieces.
Fill a large saucepan with 6 quarts of water and bring to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt.
Gently add half of the gnocchi to the boiling water. Cook for 1-2 minutes after they float to the surface.
Remove the cooked gnocchi with a slotted spoon and set aside, keeping them warm. Repeat with the remaining gnocchi.
Serve immediately with your favorite sauce, or try the browned butter method: Melt 1/2 cup butter in a pan until nutty brown, then toss the cooked gnocchi until crispy.
Enjoy your delicious homemade Basil Gnocchi!
