Ingredients:
  • 1 pound (450g) store-bought or homemade gnocchi
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 8 ounces (225g) mixed wild mushrooms (shiitake, cremini, chanterelle, etc.), sliced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions:
  1. Cook the gnocchi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to the package instructions or until they float to the surface. Drain the gnocchi and set aside.
  2. Brown the butter: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Allow it to cook, swirling the pan occasionally until the butter turns a golden brown color and emits a nutty aroma. Be careful not to let it burn. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Sauté the mushrooms: In a separate skillet, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they become tender and lightly browned. Season with salt, pepper, and fresh thyme leaves for added flavor.
  4. Combine the elements: Place the skillet with the brown butter back on low heat. Add the cooked gnocchi and sautéed mushrooms to the skillet. Gently toss the mixture to coat the gnocchi evenly with the brown butter and incorporate the mushrooms.
  5. Serve and garnish: Transfer the beautifully dressed gnocchi and mushroom medley to a serving dish. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley for a finishing touch. The added nutty and creamy flavors of the Parmesan will complement the dish perfectly.
