• An Italian speciality, gnocchi are small dumplings made from potatoes, flour and eggs. We’ve lightly pan-fried them here to serve as a drinks snack.

    Pan-fried gnocchi

    Snack
    Serves: 4
    Cooking Time: 10 mins

    Ingredients

    • 50ml butter
    • 30ml olive oil
    • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
    • 200g ready-made gnocchi
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • 100g Parmesan, freshly grated

    Instructions

    1

    Melt the butter and olive oil in a frying pan and add the garlic and gnocchi. Lightly fry until golden, tossing regularly. The texture will become crunchy on the outside and remain soft on the inside.

    2

    Remove and drain on paper towel. Season well.

    3

    Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve while still hot.

    Notes

    COOK’S TIP Pan-fried gnocchi can be served as a savoury snack with a tomato dipping sauce or as a sweet treat sprinkled with sugar and a dollop of honey.
