Gnocchi (/ ˈ n (j) ɒ k i / N(Y)OK-ee, US also / ˈ n (j) oʊ k i, ˈ n (j) ɔː k i / N(Y)OH-kee, N(Y)AW-, Italian: ; singular gnocco) are a variety of pasta consisting of various thick, small, and soft dough dumplings that may be made from semolina, ordinary wheat flour, egg, cheese, potato, breadcrumbs, cornmeal or similar ingredients, and possibly including flavourings of herbs.

Steps to make Gnocchi:
  1. Steam the potatoes for 30-40 minutes, until they can be pierced with a fork. (I do this by putting three golf ball sized foil balls in a pot in about 1/2 inch off water, then placing a plate on top with the potatoes on it.)
  2. Take the potatoes and mash them evenly. You want a very even consistency and you do not want them to be too moist.
  3. On a floured surface, roll the mash potatoes on the surface, adding 1 cup of flour. (Add the rest of the flour only if the potatoes get too moist).
  4. Bring a pot of water to boil. It should be salted enough to taste like salt water.
  5. Roll the dough out into logs that are 1/2 inch thick.
  6. Cut them into 1/2 inch pieces.
  7. Roll these pieces along the tongs of a fork, creating grooves for the pasta sauce to cling to.
  8. Boil these for about two minutes, they will start to float and cook for another 20 seconds.
  9. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
  10. Serve with sauce of your choice.
  11. If you like crunchy exterior on your gnocchi, forget the boiled water and just cook each gnocchi in about 1/4 inch of oil for about 20 seconds on each side.
  12. Enjoy!

While trying to find a creative use for leftover turkey, we decided to add gnocchi instead of noodles. If you don't have leftover turkey, a rotisserie chicken works just as well. —Amy Babines, Virginia Beach, Virginia The gnocchi weren't as light and fluffy as some I have had but they were kinda easy to make. I think next time I will just use leftover mashed potatoes - the milk and butter in them should lighten up the gnocchi. Eating gnocchi is like taking a bite out of a little cloud.
