Pan-fried Gnocchi with Mushrooms and Spinach
At the moment, I’m a fan of pan-fried gnocchi! Why? Because it is super simple to prepare and you can vary the recipes at will. Today, I’m showing you one of my favorite recipes for Pan-Fried Gnocchi with Mushrooms and Spinach.
How to prepare pan-fried gnocchi?
Making pan-fried gnocchi is very simple and is perfect for a quick meal.
First of all, you need gnocchi. You can either buy pre-cooked gnocchi (which is what I did for this recipe). If you have the time, I advise you to prepare your own gnocchi. You can find my recipe for homemade Gnocchi without equipment here.
Be careful, if you use pre-cooked gnocchi, it is necessary to cook them in water for 1-2 minutes before frying them.
Next, brown the gnocchi in a pan so that they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I usually use olive oil to brown them.
To sauté the vegetables that accompany the gnocchi, I recommend you to sauté them separately and mix everything together at the last moment. To do this, I set my gnocchi aside on a plate and use the same pan to sauté my vegetables (in this case mushrooms and spinach for this recipe).
Then, before serving, I add the gnocchi to the pan and mix it well. This way the gnocchi will remain crispy.
