Gnocchi Alla Giordano Recipe

Boil the potatoes in their jackets, drain, peel and put through a ricer or food mill. While the potatoes are still warm, blend in the flour, add the egg, egg yolk, butter and salt.
Place the potato mixture on a floured board and knead lightly; the dough will be soft. Roll the dough in 1" thick sticks about 10" long.
Cut each roll into 3/4" pieces.
Rub each piece of dough lightly over the coarse side of a cheese grater over a large pot of boiling salted water. Cook the gnocchi until they rise to the top of the water. Using a slotted spoon,remove the gnocchi to a warm bowl. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, top with tomato sauce and serve.
