Gnocchi In Fontina Sauce Recipe

	Kitchenwitchcooks / All my dishes 1 year, 2 months ago when making homemade gnocchi I always try to make a dish of this as well - even if the rest of the gnocchi are smothered in meat sauce. Makes a great accompaniment to a lovely salad as well! Prep:10m Cook:10m Servings:4	Kitchenwitc

Ingredients

Gnocchi in Fontina Sauce

1 pound gnocchi - cheese or potato - your choice

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons chopped shallots

8 ounces fontina cheese, cubed

1/3 cup heavy cream

3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the gnocci, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, and set aside.

Once the gnocci goes into the pot, start the sauce, as you want the gnocci to be done first. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots, and cook for a few minutes, until tender. Stir in the cream, and heat to almost a boil. Gradually mix in the fontina and parmesan cheeses, being careful not to boil. Stir until smooth, then remove from the heat immediately, or the sauce may clump.

Place gnocci into serving dishes, and spoon the sauce over them. Garnish with chopped fresh basil.

I love this recipe. My husband is Italian and used to make gnocchi with his Grandma. Now we make it with our kids. Either with meat sauce or clarified butter. I just have to try this sauce as we all love fontina cheese too. Great one, thanks and high 5b from me! MJ

I too have an Italian husband who made gnocchi with his grandma and now makes it for us on the same board that she used. We love it. This sounds excellent...A big 5.
