Preparation Steps
1
Boil the potatoes in their skins in salted water for about 20 minutes, or until they are completely tender.
2
Peel the potatoes while they are still warm, then mash them with a potato ricer or fork in a bowl.
3
Let the mashed potatoes cool slightly, then add the egg, salt, and flour. Knead until you have a soft, non-sticky dough.
4
Divide the dough into several portions and roll them into logs. With a sharp knife, cut into approximately 2 cm pieces.
5
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then add salt. Cook the gnocchi in small batches until they float to the surface (about 2 minutes), then drain them.
6
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté the cooked gnocchi until lightly golden brown.
7
In a small saucepan, combine the banana, honey, vanilla, and cream, then start to heat over medium heat.
8
Cook the banana sauce until it thickens slightly, then add the finely chopped dark chocolate and stir until melted to create a silky sauce.
9
Pour the banana-chocolate sauce over the sautéed gnocchi, then gently toss to coat each piece.
10
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and a little extra grated chocolate for the perfect finishing touch.
11
Serve immediately while warm, garnished with a few extra banana slices and chocolate sauce!
