Best 7 Gnocchi With Creamy Mushroom And Leek Sauce Recipes

CREAMY MUSHROOM AND LEEK PASTA

Steps:

• Cut off the root hairs and most of your green stems. Keep the stems for making stock. This part is edible when you cook it for longer periods of time.
• Cut your leeks in half lengthwise and then half each stock again so you have 4 long quarters. Finley slice the leeks and rinse in cold water to get rid of any dirt in the leek (leeks hide dirt very well). Drain well.
• Heat a large pan over medium/high heat. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and the finely chopped leeks. Saute 2 minutes.
• Cut mushrooms in half if they are small and into quarters if they are larger. Add halved/sliced mushrooms and 3 pressed garlic cloves. Saute uncovered, stirring often for 8 minutes or until mushrooms are soft.
• Stir in 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream.
• Add 2 Tbsp chopped dill, 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste) and 1/8 tsp pepper. Simmer uncovered another 5 minutes for the sauce to thicken up a little.
• Pour over your favorite cooked pasta. This would work over just about any noodles. I served it over angel hair pasta (my favorite). Sprinkle with parmesan if you like :)

GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• For gnocchi:
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Pierce potatoes with fork. Bake until tender, about 1 hour. Cool slightly; cut potatoes in half and scoop pulp into large bowl. Mash potatoes well. Mix in egg yolk, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Mix in enough flour to form firm, slightly elastic dough. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Gently roll 1 portion between hands and work surface to form 1/2-inch-thick rope about 18 inches long. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Roll each piece over tines of dinner fork to make grooves in gnocchi. Arrange gnocchi in single layer on floured baking sheet. Repeat with remaining 3 portions of dough.
• Working in small batches, cook gnocchi in large pot of boiling salted water until gnocchi rise to top and are tender, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to large baking pan. (Gnocchi can be prepared ahead. Let stand 1 hour at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.)
• For mushroom sauce:
• Cook butter and olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat until butter begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and shallots and sauté until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add stock and sage; simmer until liquid is slightly reduced, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add gnocchi to sauce in skillet and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Add arugula and stir until wilted. Divide equally among bowls. Drizzle with truffle oil, if desired. Sprinkle with cheese.

RICOTTA GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the ricotta, Parmesan, egg yolks and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix on low speed, scrape down the sides and mix again. Add the 1 cup of flour in three additions on low speed. Do not overmix.
• Dust a clean work surface with flour. Dust a sheet tray with flour. Turn out the dough onto the floured work surface and dust your hands with some flour. Roll the dough into long cylinders, about 18 inches in length. With a bench scraper, cut the dough into 1-inch pieces and place onto the sheet tray dusted with flour. Sprinkle the gnocchi with more flour to avoid sticking.
• Heat a large saute pan with some olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the maitakes and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the oyster mushrooms and cook until browned, another 4 to 5 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic and thyme sprigs and cook for a few minutes until fragrant and softened. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the heavy cream and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until thickened and reduced by a little more than half, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Set up a pot of boiling water and season liberally with kosher salt. Drop the gnocchi into the water. Once they float to the top, they are done, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the gnocchi and add them directly into the mushroom cream sauce and toss to combine over a low simmer. If the sauce has gotten too thick, thin it out with a little bit of pasta water. Garnish with the chives.

CRISPY GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOMS

Stir in 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 2 grated garlic cloves and 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest; transfer to a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and a 12-ounce package refrigerated gnocchi to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until crisp, 5 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and 1/4 cup chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper.

• Scoop out 3/4 cup of pasta cooking water and set aside. Place spinach in the bottom of a colander and drain the gnocchi over the spinach to wilt it.
