Ingredients

Directions

  • To create gnocchi dough, combine package contents of DeLallo Gnocchi Kit with water in a small mixing bowl. Stir with a fork until dough begins to form. Knead by hand until the dough no longer sticks. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and form into a loaf shape.
  • To form gnocchi, use a knife to cut dough into 1-inch strips. Roll out each strip by-hand into long ropes. Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces.
  • Roll each piece into a ball. Press to flatten into 1-inch disks.
  • Place a small amount of cheese onto each disk. Fold the dough around it to create a small round dumpling. Cover and set aside.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring continuously. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute until lightly golden, stirring continuously.
  • Gradually whisk in the half and half. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer until thickened, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Remove pan from heat.
  • Boil 5 quarts of salted water in a large pot. Cook the gnocchi 3-5 minutes. Gnocchi are done once they float to the top. Remove gnocchi with a slotted spoon to drain and add to prepared sauce.
  • Cook gnocchi with sauce for 3-5 minutes to marry flavors. Serve topped with fresh torn basil and pepper flakes.
