Gnocchi Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Cauliflower

   Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Once cooked, allow it to cool slightly, then blend until smooth.

2. 2

   Make the Gnocchi Dough

   In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower puree, flour, salt, lemon zest, and black pepper. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as necessary.

3. 3

   Shape the Gnocchi

   On a floured surface, roll portions of the dough into long ropes, about 1 inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces and, if desired, press with a fork to create ridges.

4. 4

   Cook the Gnocchi

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

5. 5

   Prepare the Sauce

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the oyster mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone cheese and lemon juice, mixing until well combined and creamy.

6. 6

   Combine and Serve

   Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet with the mushroom sauce, tossing gently to coat. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
