It’s easy to forget how simple and frugal homemade gnocchi can be, especially when you make them from an already cooked batch of baked spuds – deliciousIf I’m going to the effort of making jacket potatoes (and by effort I mean putting them in the oven for an hour), I will almost always pop in a few extra spuds to make gnocchi for a later meal.
