Boil the potatoes in their jackets, drain, peel and put through a ricer or food
mill. While the potatoes are still warm, blend in the flour, add the egg, egg
yolk, butter and salt.
Place the potato mixture on a floured board and knead lightly; the dough will be
soft. Roll the dough in 1" thick sticks about 10" long. Cut each roll into 3/4"
pieces.
Rub each pieces of dough lightly over the coarse side of a cheese grater. In a
large pot of boiling salted water, cook the gnocchi until they rise to the top
of the water. Using a slotted spoon, remove the gnocchi to a warm bowl. Sprinkle
with Parmesan cheese, top with tomato sauce and serve at once.
