Ingredients

  • 1 lb potato gnocchi
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 10 fresh sage leaves
  • 1/4 cup toasted hazelnuts
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • flaky sea salt to taste

Instructions

1
Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water and cooking the gnocchi until they float to the surface; drain and pat completely dry.
2
In a large non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam and turn a nutty golden brown color.
3
Whisk in the white miso paste until smooth and emulsified.
4
Add the dried gnocchi to the pan in a single layer, searing for 3-4 minutes without moving them to develop a deep, golden-brown crust.
5
Add the sage leaves and red pepper flakes, tossing gently until the sage is crispy.
6
Remove from heat, fold in the toasted hazelnuts, and finish with a generous grating of Parmesan cheese and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
7
Serve immediately while the exterior remains perfectly crisp.
