Start by boiling or baking your potatoes until they’re tender; let them cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes until smooth.

In a large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes with flour, salt, and egg; knead gently until the dough comes together.

Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into long ropes; cut the ropes into bite-sized pieces and press against a fork to create ridges.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and drop the noodles in batches until they float, usually within 2-3 minutes.

Remove noodles with a slotted spoon and toss in olive oil to prevent clumping; optionally, pan-fry them for a crispy exterior.
