Brown-Butter Gnocchi

WITH SAGE AND PARMESAN

By Taste Kitchen Chefs

Pillow-light potato gnocchi finished in nut-brown butter, sage, and a fine grating of Parmesan. Twenty minutes from hot water to the table once the dough is rested.

INGREDIENTS

  • 500 g potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 100–130 g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp fine salt
  • 60 g unsalted butter
  • 8–12 fresh sage leaves, optional
  • 30 g Parmesan, finely grated
  • Black pepper, to finish
  • Flaky salt, to taste

DIRECTIONS

  1. 1.Boil the potatoes in salted water until very tender, then drain well.
  2. 2.Mash or rice the potatoes while still warm, then spread them out briefly so excess steam escapes.
  3. 3.Add the egg yolk, salt, and flour a little at a time. Mix gently until a soft dough forms.
  4. 4.Divide the dough into ropes on a lightly floured surface, then cut into small pieces. If you want the image’s smooth, modern look, leave them plain; if you want more texture, roll them over a fork.
  5. 5.Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Cook the gnocchi in batches until they float, then lift them out with a slotted spoon.
  6. 6.In a wide pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it turns golden and smells nutty. Add sage if using.
  7. 7.Toss the cooked gnocchi in the brown butter for 1–2 minutes until lightly glazed.
  8. 8.Finish with Parmesan, black pepper, and a pinch of flaky salt.

CHEF'S NOTES

Brown the butter just until it smells nutty and the milk solids turn amber — pull it off the heat immediately.

Wine / Drink Pairing

A glass of Barbera or sparkling water with lemon.
