Have you ever fried gnocchi?

[wizarddry]

It's delicious

Yes. Even better when it is filled with cheese.

Mmm yes lovely.

Ooh not fried, but we roast ours 😋😋 it's delicious

Yes! it's my favourite way to have it. Much better texture than boiled.

It's my favourite five minute lunch.

Really?

Yes, it's gorgeous.

Mmmm lovely crispy bits

Do you just shallow fry in olive oil?
How long does roasting take?

It’s 1000% nicer than boiled gnocchi.

Bloody amazing in the air fryer

I'm going to do that next

It seems to absorb quite a bit of oil

Do you fry it straight from the packet?

Agreed!

Yes! It's lovely

Yes I pan fry in butter and olive oil. Delicious.

Also try schnupfnudeln or Spätzle the same way.

@StrictlyAFemaleFemale oh yes. Lovely crispy outside and fluffy in the middle. It stays quite crisp even with sauce added.

This hello fresh recipe is soooo good

Thanks @NailsHairNipsHeels this thread is quite the education!

I tried it today with just a bit of butter and garlic. Wow. I'm going to try and jazz it up a bit next time but it's a revelation! They didn't even say on the packet to fry it!

Always use airfryer for gnocchi now, it's fab

I've never had it boiled, only ever fried / roast!

One of my favourite dishes is gnocchi chucked in a roasting tin with the same amount of cherry tomatoes, red onion slices and some good olive oil. Roast for about 10 minutes then mash the tomatoes up in the tin and chuck in some chunks of goats cheese and put back in for another 8-10 mins until the goats cheese is starting to turn brown on top

Serve with some fresh basil leaves and a squirt of balsamic glaze over the top .

Sometimes I add some bacon bits as well - especially if I've used a milder cheese like mozzarella rather than goats cheese.

It’s delicious in the air fryer.

I tried it after I saw Nigella fry them.

Definitely better roasted than boiled where it tends to be a bit gluey.

Yes, so much better this way than just boiled. Takes me way more than five minutes to get a nice crispy crust on them though.
