Preparation Steps
1
Peel the potatoes, cut them into smaller pieces, and boil 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
Add the flour, egg yolk, and a pinch of salt to the cooled potatoes. Knead until you have a soft, homogeneous dough.
4
Divide the dough into four parts. Roll each part into a rope about 2 cm thick, then cut into small pieces. You can gently press each gnocchi with a fork to create the characteristic ridges.
5
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the gnocchi in smaller batches. As soon as they float to the surface (about 2 minutes), drain them and set aside.
6
Heat the olive oil in a skillet. Add the finely chopped garlic and sauté over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
7
Add the diced zucchini, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, or until slightly softened.
8
Pour in the tomato purée and cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
9
Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and toss to coat with the vegetable sauce.
10
Before serving, sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped basil.
