Lunches for the week: Gnocchi, pancetta, mushrooms, green peas, with a sage-infused cream sauce

I was going to post this in the homemade food subreddit, but it no longer seems to exist and I'm getting errors when I go to re-create it :(

Never fear: Food is fun and my mouth is a hole, so share it here I will!

INGREDIENTS:

  • Fresh potato gnocchi
  • Pancetta (I went with strips, but diced is probably good too)
  • Cremini mushrooms, quartered
  • Green peas
  • Fresh sage
  • Heavy cream
  • Parmesan cheese, grated
  • Butter
  • Water (for boiling)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Chili flakes

PROCEDURE:

  1. Boil your gnocchi until sufficiently cooked in salted water (your gnocchi package may tell you how to do this)
  2. Get a pan on medium to medium-high heat, add pancetta
  3. Once the pancetta fat has rendered, add butter and mushrooms. Cook, mixing periodically, until pancetta gets crispy and mushrooms get golden-brown
  4. Meanwhile, thaw your green peas. Your pea package may tell you how to do this. Once thawed, drain and add to pancetta-mushroom mixture
  5. Chop your sage, add it, the heavy cream, and the parmesan to the pan (enough cream to well-coat the ingredients within). Let the mixture thicken a bit
  6. Drain the gnocchi, add to the pancetta-mushroom-pea-sage-cream mixture. Mix it together
  7. Season with pepper and chili flakes as desired
  8. Put it on a plate and fucking eat it!

Gnocci is like potato pasta, right? Always wanted to try it.

Yes gnochchi is like a penne dumpling.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 1 pts · 71d

Curious if it would taste really different than normal pasta if it didn't have sauce. But I have to go shopping tomorrow, I can just buy some and try it later this week (not gonna eat it all sauceless, just like a bite lol)
