Gnocchi

Vegetable Medley

Salmon

Method

Making the Gnocchi

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, flour, egg, lemon zest, and salt. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  2. 2

    Shape the Gnocchi

    On a floured surface, roll the dough into long ropes and cut into 1-inch pieces. Use a fork to create ridges.

  3. 3

    Cook the Gnocchi

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Cooking the Vegetable Medley

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced leeks and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add sweet corn and butternut squash, cooking until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

Cooking the Salmon

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salmon

    Season king salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 6

    Cook the Salmon

    Cook salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine and Serve

    On a plate, place a serving of the vegetable medley, top with gnocchi, and finish with a piece of salmon. Garnish with lemon wedges.
