Ingredients
- Gnocchi:
- 1 pound fresh gnocchi
- 1 quart water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Parmesan Tomato Cream Sauce:
- 3/4 c heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 c grated parmigiano reggiano cheese
- 1/2 c diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil
- 1 teaspoon tomato powder
- 2 tablespoons white wine
- 1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- Salt & pepper to taste
Directions
- To make the sauce: Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat, add minced garlic and cook garlic until tender and slightly browned. Add the wine and stir to deglaze pan and simmer for one minute. Add the heavy whipping cream, cheese, tomatoes, parsley, basil, tomato powder and salt & pepper. Stir, sprinkle the nutmeg and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
- To cook the gnocchi: Add the quart of water and salt to a pan and bring to a full boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until they start to float on top of the water--usually 3-5 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon (try to take as little water as possible) and place in the pan with the cream sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes. Serve as a side dish or main course. Finish with a sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg and garnish with fresh basil.
