Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Gnocchi

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are tender, about 4-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked gnocchi and frozen peas to the skillet. Pour in the heavy cream, and stir gently to combine. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  4. 4

    Finish the Dish

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
