Homemade gnocchi, soft on the inside and lightly pan-seared until golden, served with our Jean Martin Tomato Basil Sauce: a comforting dish that the whole family will love.
Preparation
Mix the ricotta, grated parmesan, eggs, and flour. Season with salt and pepper.
Shape the gnocchi.
Poach them in a pot of heavily salted simmering water. Remove them as soon as they rise to the surface. Cool them immediately and drain.
Heat the Tomato Basil Sauce.
Sauté the gnocchi in a pan with a little butter until golden.
Serve with the tomato sauce and some parmesan shavings. Sprinkle with basil.
Our tip
Do not overwork the gnocchi dough: the more you handle it, the denser the gnocchi will be. Test the cooking of one gnocchi before poaching the rest to adjust the texture if necessary.
Variation
Add a handful of fresh spinach to the tomato sauce at the end of cooking for more color and vegetables.
Pairings & suggestions
A light red wine like a Chianti or a Provence rosé pairs very well with this revisited Italian dish.

Storage
Cooked gnocchi can be kept for 1 day in the refrigerator. However, raw and shaped gnocchi freeze very well: simply drop them directly into boiling water while frozen.
