| For the gnocchi: cook the potatoes and let cool a bit. Peel and mash them. On a flat surface form a fountain, and in the middle add flour and 2 eggs and mix all. The dough must be soft. Form the shape of the gnocchi in a small square. Place water and olive oil in a pot and when it is boiling, start to place the gnocchi in the water. As they appear on the surface, collect them and place in a long plate and add some olive oil. |

Add tomato sauce and salt and cook for 15/20 minutes. Add the gnocchi and the mozzarella cut into small pieces and turn gently for few minutes.
