Pan-browned mushrooms give this creamy gnocchi skillet a savory base.

# Ingredients:

Ingredients

01 - 500 g potato gnocchi
02 - 400 g sliced mushrooms
03 - 1 tbsp olive oil
04 - 20 g butter
05 - 2 garlic cloves, minced
06 - 150 ml vegetable broth
07 - 150 ml heavy cream
08 - 40 g grated Parmesan
09 - 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
10 - ¼ tsp black pepper

# Instructions:

01 - Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the gnocchi. Brush mushrooms clean and slice about 5 mm thick.
02 - Heat oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms in two batches and cook 5–7 minutes per batch until their moisture evaporates and the edges brown. Return all mushrooms to the pan.
03 - Add butter, garlic and thyme. Stir over medium heat for 1 minute without letting the garlic burn. Pour in broth and scrape up the browned bits.
04 - Stir in cream and simmer gently for 3–4 minutes. Meanwhile, cook gnocchi following their packet instructions, then drain, keeping a little cooking water.
05 - Add gnocchi, Parmesan and pepper to the skillet. Toss over low heat until the sauce clings, adding a spoonful of cooking water if needed.
06 - Serve immediately while the gnocchi are soft and the sauce glossy. Taste before adding any optional salt because broth and Parmesan vary in saltiness.
07 - Refrigerate cooled leftovers within two hours for up to three days. Reheat gently with a splash of water until hot throughout.
