Where to find ingredients
Potatoes, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, margarine, eggs, milk, tomato sauce, ham, and mozzarella cheese are commonly found in the produce, pantry, dairy, and deli sections of most supermarkets. Grated Parmesan cheese is available in the cheese aisle. Baking powder and other pantry staples are typically found in the baking section. For a wider selection of cheeses or specialty ham, check the deli counter. If you are looking for specific Brazilian ingredients or a broader range of imported products, a local Latin or Brazilian market is your best bet.
Preparation method
- In a large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, margarine, grated Parmesan cheese, eggs, and baking powder
- Add the milk gradually, mixing until you obtain a homogeneous and creamy dough
- The amount of milk may vary depending on the moisture content of the potatoes
- Grease a baking dish or ovenproof dish with butter or margarine
- Spread half of the gnocchi dough on the bottom of the prepared dish
- Cover the dough with a layer of tomato sauce
- Distribute the chopped or sliced ham over the sauce
- Place the slices or pieces of mozzarella on top of the ham
- Repeat the layers: spread the remaining gnocchi dough, followed by more tomato sauce, ham, and mozzarella
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) until the cheese is completely melted and golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes
