Directions

  1. 1. In a food processor, combine the garlic powder, parmesan cheese, water, egg and butter. Run on low speed until a dough forms.
  2. 2. In a separate bowl combine the potato flakes, flour, salt and sage; mix well. Add this mixture to the processor and run on low until fully incorporated.
  3. 3. On a floured work surface knead the dough then roll out flat, cut into strips and roll the strips into ropes. Cut the ropes into one inch sections and mark each piece with the tines of the fork for that "gnocchi look".
  4. 4. Boil in salted water for about three to five minutes. Drain with a slotted spoon, not a colander, because they are a bit delicate.
  5. 5. Serve with your favorite sauce.
