Peel the potatoes and press them through a potato ricer. Knead with flour, egg, Parmesan, and salt. Roll the dough into finger‑thick ropes, cut into pieces, and press a pattern with the back of a fork. Place side by side on a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes. Bring plenty of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi over low heat for 3–5 minutes until they rise to the surface.
