Perfectly Delicious Fried Gnocci

Most people, myself included, enjoy gnocci boiled and served with a sauce. Been there, done that. It is delicious that way, yes; but when such a delectable concept such as 'fried gnocci' falls into my lap; i can't help but try it. and Oh My Dear. I am glad I did, and I hope you do too.

Fried Gnocci: the best accompaniment to roast chicken, fish, beef, veggies, tossed over a salad, etc, eat it with anything. Just eat it. This stuff is good.


***************************************************************************

Get yourself a package of the fresh refrigerated kind of gnocci. I've tried different varieties, and they are all fine.

The only other ingredients are butter, olive oil and salt.

Get a pan that is big enough so when all the gnocci are in the pan sizzling away they have enough room and are not overlapping.

Heat 2TB butter and 2TB olive oil together until the butter has melted and is bubbling slightly.

Let your gnocci tumble and bumble their into the pan

Resist the urge to touch them, instead let them grow irresistibly golden brown on their bottoms (about 3-4min) before flipping them, and gild the other side for the same amount of time.

When they are done; sprinkle a little salt over them, but not much.

Fall in love with their outer golden-crispiness and inner soft, fluffiness. 

Hope you enjoy!
