Where to find ingredients
Look for the ingredients in the fresh produce section, dairy aisle, baking section, and deli counter at supermarkets, neighborhood grocers, or open-air markets. If needed, use local cheese and ham as substitutes for the same quantities.
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 little by little, stirring until you get a smooth, creamy dough. The amount of milk may vary depending on how moist the potato is
- Grease a baking dish or pan with butter or margarine
- Spread half of the gnocchi mixture over the bottom of the prepared pan
- Cover the mixture with a layer of tomato sauce
- Distribute the chopped or sliced ham over the sauce
- Place the mozzarella slices or pieces on top of the ham
- Repeat the layers: spread the remaining gnocchi mixture, followed by more tomato sauce, ham, and mozzarella
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until the cheese is completely melted and gratinated, about 20 to 25 minutes
