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

Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water and cooking the gnocchi until they float to the surface; drain and pat completely dry.

In a large non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam and turn a nutty golden brown color.

Whisk in the white miso paste until smooth and emulsified.

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.

Add the sage leaves and red pepper flakes, tossing gently until the sage is crispy.

Remove from heat, fold in the toasted hazelnuts, and finish with a generous grating of Parmesan cheese and a pinch of flaky sea salt.

Serve immediately while the exterior remains perfectly crisp.
