Equipment

  • cooking pot
  • frying pan
  • slotted spoon

Ingredients
 

  • 500 grams gnocchi
  • salt

SAUCE

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 8 leaves fresh sage
  • 3 tbsp parmesan cheese
  • 125 ml pasta water
  • pepper

Instructions

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt.
  • Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add butter and let it melt.
  • Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi for about 90 seconds, or until they start floating.
  • Reserve some pasta water by using a cup or a ladle. Add the pasta water to the melted butter in the pan. Be careful, as it might splatter.
  • Tear and bruise the sage, then add it to the frying pan. Add extra Parmesan and pepper. Stir until the cheese has melted and you have a thin silky sauce.
  • Use a slotted spoon to add the gnocchi to the frying pan. Combine all ingredients.
  • Serve with a bit of Parmesan.
