Rich and decadent gnocchi in white sauce. A quick and easy Fontina cheese sauce makes the gnocchi melt in your mouth! Best served with a light salad to balance out the richness.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package refrigerated gnocchi
Fontina Sauce
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons chopped shallots
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces Fontina cheese, cubed
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
Step 2
Once gnocchi goes into the boiling water, start the sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream and heat to almost a boil. Gradually mix in Fontina and Parmesan cheeses, being careful not to boil. Stir until smooth, then remove from the heat immediately so the sauce doesn't clump.
Step 3
Place gnocchi into serving dishes and spoon sauce over top. Garnish each serving with basil.
