Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prick each potato several times with a fork and set them on a baking sheet.
- 2
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven until they are tender when pierced with a knife, about 50 minutes. Let them cool until easy to handle, about 10 minutes.
- 3
Peel the potatoes and press them through a ricer or food mill into a large bowl. Make a well in the center, add the egg, and mix well.
- 4
Whisk the potato starch, sweet rice flour, and salt together in a bowl. Sprinkle this over the potato mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. Use a knife or pastry cutter to divide the dough into 4 equal portions.
- 5
Lightly dust the work surface with rice flour to prevent sticking. Roll one portion of dough into a rope about 1 inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces to make gnocchi, then gently roll each piece over the back of a fork to form ridges. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- 6
Shake off any extra rice flour and let the gnocchi rest for about 5 minutes.
- 7
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi in batches and cook without stirring until they rise to the surface, 1 to 2 minutes. Lift them out with a slotted spoon.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe
easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.
The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.
Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.
Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
