A quick potato I developed was based on an idea Nigella Lawson presented on one of her shows. She took Gnocchi (generally a potato filled pasta served with sauce) and cooked it in butter until they browned and turned into tiny versions of roasted potatoes. I added my twist to come up with this super fast side dish! Fresh gnocchi should be in the refrigerated section by the other fresh pasta and pierogies.
Ingredients:
2 shallots (diced)
1 package fresh Gnocchi
2 tbsp butter
Splash of canola oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp fresh lemon thyme (no stems)
1 tsp fresh finely chopped Rosemary
Heat a large skillet and add in the butter and oil on medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot add the shallots.
Salt the shallots and cook for 2 minutes. Add in the gnocchi and brown both sides. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle on the fresh herbs right before you serve.
