Ingredients

Scale

2 large starchy potatoes (Russets or Yukon Gold)
1 cup all-purpose flour (adjust as needed)
1 large egg
3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1/2 cup freshly chopped parsley
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Boil potatoes in salted water for 15-20 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly before peeling.
Mash the warm potatoes in a bowl and mix in flour, egg, salt, and pepper until a soft dough forms.
On a floured surface, roll dough into ropes about 1/2 inch thick, cut into 1-inch pieces, and create grooves with a fork.
Cook gnocchi in boiling salted water until they float (about 2-3 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté minced garlic in butter until fragrant. Add heavy cream and Parmesan; stir until combined.
Toss cooked gnocchi in the skillet with sauce and fresh parsley until evenly coated. Serve warm.
