Ingredients
- 1.5 lb Potato gnocchi
- 6 tbsp Butter
- 12 leaves Sage
- 1/2 cup Parmesan
- 1/3 cup Walnuts
Steps
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a rolling boil.
- Melt the butter in a wide skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sage leaves and cook, swirling, until the butter turns amber and smells nutty, about 3 minutes.
- Watch closely — brown butter goes from perfect to burnt in under a minute.
- Remove the sage to a plate; keep the butter warm.
- Boil the gnocchi in batches; they are done 1 minute after they float to the surface.
- Transfer directly to the brown butter with a splash of pasta water and toss to gloss.
- Serve with parmesan, toasted walnuts, and the crispy sage leaves.
