Ingredients
- Large firm-fleshed potatoes (Bintje, agria, samba, etc.): 1 kg
- Butter: 25 g
- Whole egg: 1 (50g)
- Egg yolk: 1 (20g)
- Pommery® Old-fashioned mustard: 70 g
- T55 flour: 90 g
Recipe process
- Wash the potatoes then place them unpeeled on a bed of damp coarse salt in the oven at 190°C for an hour.
- Prick and cook for longer if necessary. Cut the potatoes in half, then scoop out the flesh.
- Pass through a vegetable mill or masher and place in a saucepan with the mustard. Dry over the heat using a spatula.
- When the pulp comes away easily, add the butter.
- Mix then transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the beaten eggs, then the flour. Mix gently and adjust the seasoning.
- Pour onto a work surface and make a long sausage shape 2 cm in diameter.
- Cut every 3 cm using a knife.
- Roll the sections into balls between your hands, then mark them by passing them over the back of a fork.
- Boil water seasoned with coarse salt, and plunge the gnocchi into it. When they rise to the surface, drain them.
- You can choose to eat them like this with a knob of butter, crisp them in a pan, or fry them.
