Ingredients

500g potato gnocchi
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp white miso paste
12 fresh sage leaves
1/2 cup roughly chopped walnuts
1 tsp lemon zest
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
pinch of black pepper

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface; drain and set aside.

In a wide skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam and turn a golden hazelnut color.

Immediately whisk in the miso paste until smooth.

Add the chopped walnuts and fresh sage leaves to the foaming butter, frying until the sage is crisp and the walnuts are toasted.

Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet, tossing gently to coat every piece in the nutty, savory miso-butter emulsion.

Remove from heat, toss with fresh lemon zest and parmesan cheese, and serve immediately while the sage is still crispy.
