Ingredients
- 500 grams potato gnocchi
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Step 2
While the water is heating, finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the parsley. Grate the Parmesan cheese if not pre-grated.
Step 3
Add the potato gnocchi to the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the gnocchi float to the surface. Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer the gnocchi to a plate. Reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
Step 4
In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Allow it to bubble and turn a light golden brown, about 2-3 minutes, being careful not to burn it.
Step 5
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Step 6
Reduce the heat slightly and add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet. Toss them gently to coat in the garlic butter sauce. If the sauce appears too thick, add a splash of the reserved cooking water to loosen it.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.
Step 8
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the gnocchi and toss to combine. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Step 9
Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
