Boil 4 medium potatoes in cold water with 1 teaspoon of salt until tender.

Once cooled slightly, peel the potatoes and set aside.

Pass the potatoes through a ricer into a bowl (or use a potato masher if ricer is not available).

Add 1 tablespoon of softened butter and 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the riced potatoes.

Add 3 cups of all purpose unbleached flour and 1 egg to the mixture.

Mix gently with a spatula, then mix with hands until a dough forms.

Roll the dough into a rope about 1 inch wide and cut into pieces about 0.75 inches thick at an angle.

Boil a pot of water with 1 teaspoon of salt and drop in the gnocchi.

Cook until the gnocchi float to the top, then remove them.

In a small frying pan, heat 2 teaspoons of sunflower oil and 1 tablespoon of sour cream on low to medium heat until well combined.

Add the cooked gnocchi to the sauce and mix gently.
