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.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I often add a bit of chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the sauce for extra flavor.

This recipe was a hit at my last potluck. The gnocchi was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of sage, so I used rosemary instead. It was still very good!

Not bad! The gnocchi was a bit bland, but the sauce was good. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

The gnocchi was a bit too heavy for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I think I'll try making it again with a different type of gnocchi.

This recipe was easy to follow and turned out great! The gnocchi was light and pillowy, and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

Fantastic recipe! The gnocchi was light and fluffy, and the sage and brown butter sauce was incredibly flavorful. I added a bit of grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, and it was perfect. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
