Description

A delightful recipe for crispy pan-fried gnocchi with brown butter that brings out the perfect combination of textures and flavors. The gnocchi is first boiled to perfection, then pan-fried until crispy, and served with a rich and nutty brown butter sauce infused with aromatic sage leaves.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the crispy gnocchi:

  • 1 batch easy homemade potato gnocchi
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the brown butter:

  • 150g butter, cubed
  • 2025 sage leaves

Instructions

  1. For the crispy gnocchi: Boil the gnocchi in well-salted water until they float to the top, then cook for an additional 30 seconds. Drain and place on a tray. Heat olive oil in a pan and fry the gnocchi until golden and crispy.
  2. For the brown butter: Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add sage leaves and cook until the butter browns and the leaves crisp up. Remove from heat when lightly browned and foamy.
  3. Serve the brown butter over the pan-fried gnocchi, garnish with sage leaves, parmesan, and lemon zest.
