HINTS & TIPS

We have a recipe for making gnocchi that is perfect for this dish
Adding lemon to brown butter will make it darker so once it’s added remove and serve straight away
When pan frying gnocchi don’t toss the pan around, give the gnocchi a chance to develop a crust that way you get the crunch and the pillow like softness in one bite
