Herb-Ricotta Gnocchi with Brown Butter Sage Sauce
Delight in tender homemade gnocchi featuring creamy part-skim ricotta with a hint of whole wheat, softly enveloped in a luxurious brown butter sage sauce and crowned with a sprinkle of nutty Parmesan. This dish delivers comfort and gourmet appeal in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1 whole egg
1 tbsp unsalted butter
5 fresh sage leaves
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, whole wheat flour, whole egg, salt, and pepper until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the gnocchi tender.
Lightly flour a surface and gently roll the dough into a log about 1-inch in diameter. Cut the log into 1-inch pieces and, if desired, roll each piece over the tines of a fork to create ridges.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In a medium skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Allow the butter to cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until it becomes a golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. Add the fresh sage leaves halfway through to infuse the butter with their flavor.
Toss the cooked gnocchi in the brown butter sage sauce until well coated.
Plate the gnocchi and sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicate balance of creamy, nutty, and savory flavors.
