Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Gnocchi

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the gnocchi according to the package instructions until they float to the surface. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Leeks

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the braised leeks and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender.

  3. 3

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Add the heavy cream to the skillet with the leeks. Bring to a gentle simmer and mix in the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Combine Gnocchi with Sauce

    Gently fold the cooked gnocchi into the cream sauce, ensuring they are well-coated. Drizzle with truffle oil and toss to combine.

  5. 5

    Prepare Toasted Breadcrumbs

    In a small pan, toast breadcrumbs over medium heat until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the creamy gnocchi and sprinkle with toasted breadcrumbs on top for added crunch. Enjoy!
