Gnocchi

Roasted Oyster Mushrooms

Garlic Herb Butter

Method

Prepare the Gnocchi

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Shape the Gnocchi

    Dust a clean surface with flour. Divide the dough into four portions. Roll each portion into a long rope about 1/2 inch thick. Cut the ropes into 1-inch pieces to form the gnocchi.

  3. 3

    Shape the Gnocchi

    Optionally, use a fork to press down on each piece to create ridges for better sauce adherence.

Roast the Mushrooms

  1. 4

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 5

    Season the Mushrooms

    In a bowl, toss the oyster mushrooms with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 6

    Roast the Mushrooms

    Spread the mushrooms on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Make the Garlic Herb Butter

  1. 7

    Melt the Butter

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  2. 8

    Add Garlic and Herbs

    Add minced garlic, chopped parsley, and thyme to the melted butter. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

  3. 9

    Add Peas

    Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Cook the Gnocchi

  1. 10

    Boil Water

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

  2. 11

    Cook the Gnocchi

    Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water. Once they float to the surface (about 2-3 minutes), they are done. Remove with a slotted spoon.

  3. 12

    Combine Everything

    In the skillet with the garlic herb butter, add the cooked gnocchi and roasted mushrooms. Toss gently to combine and heat through.
