Gnocchi and Tomato Sauce

     On Feb.26/13 (Tuesday) we made gnocchi. Gnocchi is made from 2 cups of flour, 1 1/2 cups of mash potatoes and 1 egg. We mixed it all together. We rolled it out into long, half inch thick strips and cut them into lengths of 1 inch. My group used a fork and pressed in into the dough flat.

     On Feb.28/13 (Thursday) we made the tomato sauce. A whole can of tomatoes, a whole can of tomato paste, an onion, 2 cloves of garlic, basil and oregano. We cooked the onions and garlic, then added everything else. After the gnocchi was done boiling and the sauce done cooking, we cooked them together in a sauce. We decided not to puree them and kept them whole.We cooked them for only 10 minutes then ate them. I thought it tasted great. We had a lot extra and gave some to other students and they also said it was good. I would definitely make it again.
