Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 500 g (~ 1 lb) potato gnocchi

Instructions

  • Gently heat the oil and butter in a frying pan until the butter has melted. Add the gnocchi. Don't overcrowd the pan - you want the gnocchi to be spread out in a single layer across the bottom of the pan. Cook over a medium heat, stirring every few minutes, until crisped up to your liking (around 10-15 minutes).
  • Serve the sautéed gnocchi with a light sauce (see the blog post for some ideas).
