Preparation Steps
1
Peel and chop the potatoes into smaller pieces, then boil them in salted water for about 20 minutes, or until tender.
2
Drain the cooked potatoes, mash them in a bowl, and let them cool completely.
3
To the cooled potatoes, add the flour, egg yolk, and a pinch of salt. Knead until you have a soft, homogeneous dough.
4
Divide the dough into four parts, roll each into a rope about 2 cm thick, then cut into small pieces. Gently press each piece with a fork to create the characteristic gnocchi pattern.
5
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then add the gnocchi in smaller batches. Once they float to the surface (about 2 minutes), drain them and set aside.
6
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
7
Add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the meat is fully cooked and lightly browned.
8
Pour in the white wine and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate, then add the heavy cream.
9
Simmer the sauce over low heat for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
10
Add the cooked gnocchi to the beef and cream sauce, and gently toss to coat each piece evenly.
11
Before serving, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
