Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Potato gnocchi
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Fontina cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add the potato gnocchi to the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Heat gently, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes.
Gradually add the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and fully incorporated into the cream.
Repeat this process with the Fontina and Gorgonzola cheeses, stirring continuously to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet with the cheese sauce and toss to coat evenly.
Allow the gnocchi to cook in the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the flavors meld together.
Serve immediately, garnishing each plate with fresh parsley.
