Crispy Potato Gnocci with Pesto

dclarkabal
buy or make gnocci and some fresh pesto for a lovely dinner

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag potato gnocci or make your own
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ΒΌ cup basil pesto
  • freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Instructions
 

  • Bring a pot of water to boil, add the gnocchi and when they float to the top remove them from the water.
  • In a saute pan heat a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter, once hot add the gnocchi, try not to over crowd (like I did) or they will steam instead of fry (like mine did) let them brown before turning over, brown them all over.
  • Remove to a shallow dish and cover with about a quarter cup +/- of pesto. Sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
