Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Potato gnocchi – 1 lb (450 g)
  • Heavy cream – 1 cup (240 ml)
  • Parmesan cheese, grated – 1/2 cup (50 g)
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded – 1 cup (100 g)
  • Butter – 2 tablespoons (30 g)
  • Garlic, minced – 2 cloves
  • Fresh herbs (basil or parsley), chopped – 2 tablespoons
  • Salt – to taste
  • Black pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the gnocchi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and gently drop the potato gnocchi in. Cook until they float to the surface, usually about 2-3 minutes, then scoop out with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  2. Make the creamy cheese sauce: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly.
  3. Add the cheeses: Gradually mix in the grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella, stirring until melted and the sauce is smooth and thickened to your liking.
  4. Combine gnocchi and sauce: Gently fold the cooked gnocchi into the cheesy sauce, making sure each piece is fully coated with that rich, silky goodness.
  5. Season and garnish: Season with salt, pepper, and freshly chopped herbs like basil or parsley. Serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Notes

  • Use fresh gnocchi for best texture and sauce absorption.
  • Do not overcook gnocchi; boil only until they float.
  • Simmer the sauce gently to help cheese melt evenly without separating.
  • Grate cheese fresh rather than using pre-grated for better melting.
  • Add fresh herbs just before serving to retain vibrant color and flavor.
