Preparation Steps
1
Boil the potatoes in their skins in salted water for about 20 minutes, or until completely tender.
2
Peel the potatoes while still warm, then mash them in a bowl using a potato ricer or a fork.
3
Let the mashed potatoes cool slightly, then add the egg, salt, and flour. Knead until a soft, non-sticky dough forms.
4
Divide the dough into several portions and roll them into logs. Cut into approximately 2 cm pieces with a sharp knife.
5
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gnocchi in small batches until they float to the surface (about 2 minutes), then drain.
6
Melt the butter in a skillet, then sauté the cooked gnocchi until lightly golden brown.
7
In a small saucepan, combine the red wine, honey, cinnamon, and heavy cream. Cook over medium heat.
8
Once the honey has completely dissolved, add the finely chopped prunes and cook until the fruit softens and the sauce thickens.
9
Pour the red wine and prune sauce over the sautéed gnocchi, then gently toss to coat.
10
Dust with powdered sugar and grated dark chocolate for an extra rich flavor.
11
Serve immediately, warm, with a drizzle of extra red wine prune sauce and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings.
