Gnocchi with Sage and Brown Butter image

You can't get any more fundamental than this preparation -- the sauce calls for only two ingredients, plus a sprinkle of salt and pepper to finish.

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
16 sage leaves
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
1 tablespoon coarse salt, plus more for seasoning
Basic Potato Gnocchi
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a large heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat until foam subsides and butter begins to brown. Add sage; cook, stirring, until leaves are crisp and butter is golden brown. Transfer sage leaves to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Reserve brown butter in skillet with heat off.
  • Lightly brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer gnocchi with a slotted spoon to oiled baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining gnocchi.
  • Reheat reserved brown butter over medium heat. Add gnocchi; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Add reserved sage leaves, and gently toss.

This recipe was a disaster! The gnocchi was gummy and the sauce was greasy.

I found the gnocchi to be a little bland. I think I'll try adding some more herbs or spices next time.

The sauce was a little too oily for my taste. I might try using less butter next time.

This recipe is a little time-consuming, but it's worth it. The gnocchi is so much better than store-bought.

I wasn't sure about the sage at first, but it really worked well with the brown butter.

I added some chopped walnuts to the sauce for a little extra crunch and flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover gnocchi. It's also a great vegetarian option.

Amazing recipe! The gnocchi was light and fluffy, and the sage and brown butter sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.
