Drain them, peel them, and mash them while still hot with a potato masher, letting the mixture fall directly onto a work surface. Let the mashed potatoes cool slightly, then add the flour, egg, and a pinch of salt. Knead gently until you obtain a soft dough, avoiding overworking it to prevent the gnocchi from becoming rubbery. Divide the dough into several parts and form cylinders about 2 cm thick. Cut each cylinder into small pieces of about 2 cm and, if desired, roll the gnocchi over the tines of a fork to create the classic ridges that better hold the sauce. Cooking the gnocchi: Bring plenty of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi a few at a time. The gnocchi will be ready when they float to the surface (about 2-3 minutes). Gently drain them with a slotted spoon and set them aside. Preparation of the sauce: In a large pan, melt the butter over low heat, adding the fresh sage leaves. Let the butter melt and slowly infuse with the sage, being careful not to burn it. The sage will release its characteristic aroma, creating an irresistible sauce. Plating the dish: Pour the gnocchi directly into the pan with the butter and sage, tossing them gently to ensure they are well-flavored. If necessary, add a pinch of black pepper to enhance the flavors. Serve the gnocchi hot, topped with a sprinkle of grated Parmigiano Reggiano, if desired. With just a few genuine ingredients and a simple process, you will be able to bring a recipe to the table that celebrates the tradition and authentic flavor of Italian cuisine.
