Use leftover mashed potatoes with garlic, black pepper, butter, and milk.

Add 2 eggs to the mashed potatoes.

Add flour to the mixture without measuring, just enough to form a dough.

Knead the dough until it is smooth, using hands to punch and mix.

Roll the dough into ropes, using hands to shape it.

Cut the ropes into small pieces, about 1 inch long, using fingers.

Flour the surface to prevent sticking while shaping the gnocchi.

Boil two pots of water, ensuring there is enough for the gnocchi to float freely.

Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

Remove the gnocchi with a slotted spoon and let them drain.
