STRANGOLAPRETI
Potato and Flour Neapolitan Gnocchi

 

   Ingredients


This is the Neapolitan recipe. Although the same name is used for some gnocchi preparations in Trentino Alto Adige, they are quite different dishes.

3 lbs. potatoes
1 lb. flour
3 eggs
salt
 

 

 

   Preparation

 
How to make the strangolapreti: Boil the potatoes, peel and, when still hot, pass through a potato ricer. Work the flour into the potatoes on a wooden board: quantity depends on the potatoes humidity. Add eggs and the salt. Make dough soft and homogenous.

Strangolapreti should be cooked as soon as they are ready, if they stand too long they tend to get tough. Cook in plenty of salted, boiling water. When ready remove the strangolapreti with a strainer, do not dump into a colander. Add a tomato sauce or a ragł and serve the strangolapreti with Parmigiano.
