Boil the potatoes in their skins for 30 minutes, until tender.
Peel the potatoes, mash them while still hot, and let the steam escape for 5 minutes.
Briefly knead the potatoes, flour, egg, and salt into a soft dough.
Divide the dough into ropes, cut it into small pieces, and mark each piece with a fork.
Warm the garlic in the olive oil for 1 minute to release its aroma.
Add the tomato puree, sugar, and salt, then cook the sauce for 18 minutes.
Boil the gnocchi in salted boiling water for 3 minutes, until they rise to the surface.
Toss the gnocchi with the sauce for 1 minute, then serve with basil and Parmesan.
💡 Tip: Mashing the potatoes while hot and adding the flour gradually keeps the gnocchi texture light.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Finish with Parmesan and fresh basil, then serve right away while the tomato sauce is glossy.
