Prep Time:10 mins

Total Time:30 mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 500 grams Potato gnocchi
  • 0 Olive oil cooking spray
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 12 Fresh sage leaves
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
  • 30 grams Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 3

Add the drained gnocchi to the skillet, spreading them out in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.

Step 4

While the gnocchi is frying, prepare the sage butter. In a small separate pan, melt the butter over low heat.

Step 5

Add the sage leaves and minced garlic to the butter, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the sage becomes crispy and the garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 6

Once the gnocchi is fried to your liking, remove them from the skillet and place them in a large bowl.

Step 7

Pour the sage butter mixture over the gnocchi, tossing gently to coat evenly.

Step 8

Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Step 9

Serve immediately, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
