Four Ingredient Toasted Gnocchi Recipes

RICOTTA GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Drain the ricotta: On a large plate, lay out 2 layers of paper towels, spread the ricotta cheese and press it carefully with more paper towels until they soak up the water. Gently pull the paper towel by pulling its edge. Repeat, trying to drain as much moisture as possible.
• Make the gnocchi dough: Add the egg to a medium bowl and lightly beat it. Add the remaining ingredients: drained ricotta, grated Parmesan cheese, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix quickly until the ingredients are almost combined, but they don't have to be thoroughly combined.
• Form the gnocchi: Transfer half of the batter onto a well-floured wooden board. Gently roll each piece of the dough into a wide cylinder to a thickness of about 1 1/4-inch/3cm. Brush off excess flour. Using a sharp knife, cut each long into 1.5-inch/4 cm pieces. Repeat with the remaining dough. You should have about 25 gnocchi.
• Cook gnocchi: Bring a large amount of well-salted water in a big pot to a boil. Cook the gnocchi in 2 batches. When the gnocchi float to the surface, cook them for 1 minute then transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high; add gnocchi, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over, about 10 minutes.

FOUR INGREDIENT TOASTED GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling drop the gnocchi into the water. Boil them for 2 minutes.
• Add the butter to a pie pan. Microwave for 15 seconds to melt. Transfer the cooked gnocchi to the butter and toss to evenly coat.
• Add the almond meal and cheese to another pie pan. Mix to combine.
• Toss a few gnocchi at a time in the almond meal mixture. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Continue until all the gnocchi are coated.
• Bake gnocchi for 15 minutes until lightly golden and toasted. Serve right away with marinara sauce of your choice.

ROASTED GNOCCHI AND VEGGIE CHEAT SHEET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the gnocchi, green beans, pancetta, red pepper and onion to a large bowl and mix to combine. Spread the gnocchi mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Cut 4 tablespoons of the butter into pieces and top the gnocchi mixture with the butter pieces and sage leaves. Place on the middle rack and bake, stirring halfway through, until the gnocchi are tender, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and keep warm. When the gnocchi are tender, drizzle the mixture with the butter and gently stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Scoop the mixture into a large serving bowl and garnish with the Parmesan and basil.

ROAST MUSHROOM GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Slice the mushrooms and put in a roasting tin with the gnocchi, then drizzle over 3 tbsp olive oil. Roast for 25-30 mins or until the gnocchi are golden, stirring occasionally to stop them sticking.
• Once the gnocchi are ready, stir half the spinach into the tin to wilt it, then crumble the blue cheese over the top. Put it back in the oven just to melt the cheese, then serve with the remaining spinach, drizzled with a little olive oil.
