Ingredients
- 1 pound potato gnocchi
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon truffle oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Drain the gnocchi and set them aside.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and cook until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the creamy sauce. Drizzle with truffle oil and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
4. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
For a meatless version, sauté mushrooms or spinach in the butter before adding the cream and Parmesan.
Use gluten-free potato gnocchi to accommodate dietary restrictions without sacrificing flavor.
Replace heavy cream with a creamy plant-based alternative for a vegan variation.
