Usually gnocchi are drenched in sauce. Pesto or tomato cover them, almost making their unique flavor. Yet they can shine on their own with just veggies and mushrooms in a very light sauce.The dense flavor and testure works well with the fresh greenness the others impart.
I had wanted to make a different gnocchi recipe like this for a long time. I had two packs of them Lidl.
I have to admit they are delicious on their own but I still love their taste without any sauce drenching them.A few days before I sauteed sliced baby Bella's for a risotto dish and I love the taste. If you are sauteing mushrooms, this should be your trinity of ingredients for a good and flavorful saute.
Cover the pan 's bottom with olive oil (I use Lidl's" and a good tablespoon or two of Country Crock plant butter. I used a good pinch of garlic powder also from Lidl. Keep in mind that this can be used for any saute, from tomatoes to broccoli along with mushrooms/
It only takes ten minutes to cook up , brown golden and delicious. I wanted veggies with this and I had a package of microwavable baby carrots ,yellow and green beans from Lidl's Peak Harvest brand.
This was a quick six minutes in the microwave and an easy blend with the baby Bellas.
This is a great gnocchi dish. All the ingredients complimented each other and the gnocchi's flavor was highlighted by the mushrooms, carrots and green and yellow beans. I will be making this again , possibly with the slightest , tiniest bit of pesto - just to see what it would taste like.
Gnocchi shouldn't be drenched in sauce. They should be allowed to shine and complement veggies. This dish is proof that they can be the highlight of a tecip
