Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of russet potatoes
  • 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • ¼ teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
  • ½ cup of grated Fontina cheese
  • 2 cups of heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley

Instructions:

1. Begin by boiling the russet potatoes with their skins on until they are fork-tender. This should take approximately 30-40 minutes. Once cooked, remove from heat and let them cool for a few minutes.

2. Meanwhile, prepare the cheese sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Gradually pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.

3. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel off their skins and mash them using a potato ricer or masher until they are smooth and lump-free.

4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, beaten egg, salt, black pepper, and flour. Mix until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix, as it could make the gnocchi dense.

5. Divide the dough into quarters. Roll each quarter into a long, thin log, about ¾-inch thick. Cut the log into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch long. Set aside on a lightly floured surface.

6. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

7. Remove the cooked gnocchi using a slotted spoon or spider strainer and transfer them directly into the cheese sauce. Gently toss to coat the gnocchi evenly.

8. Finally, add all four cheeses (mozzarella, Parmesan, Gorgonzola, and Fontina) to the sauce-coated gnocchi. Stir gently until the cheeses have melted and created a smooth and velvety sauce.

9. Serve the Four Cheese Gnocchi hot, garnished with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Now that you know the secrets to making irresistible Four Cheese Gnocchi, you can impress your friends and family with this mouthwatering Italian dish. Buon appetito!
