If you buy gnocchi, the packet will tell you to cook them by boiling them in salted water until they rise to the surface.
But having now tried them fried them in a tiny amount of oil instead (a tip-off from a friend), they are SOOOO much nicer; crispy, edged, soft little pillows with none of the stodginess of boiled (It certainly works for fresh gnocchi from the chiller; haven't tried it with long-life yet).
Anyone else fry their gnocchi?
AIBU to think that the accepted cooking instructions are simply wrong?
