Gnocchi Four Cheese Bake Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add shallots and garlic; cook and stir 3 to 4 min. or until crisp-tender. Add pancetta; cook 3 to 4 min. or until lightly browned, stirring frequently. Stir in pepper.
• Add pasta sauce; mix well. Stir in peas; simmer on medium-low heat 2 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. Add gnocchi; mix lightly.
• Heat broiler. Spoon gnocchi mixture into 9-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with cheese.
• Broil, 4 inches from heat, 3 min. or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fill a large saucepan with water. Add potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil. Continue to boil until potatoes are very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain and run through a food mill or a ricer for a nice, smooth consistency. Place potatoes in a bowl and refrigerate until they are cool, 15 to 20 minutes; this will help keep them fluffy.
• Dust 2 sheet pans with flour and set aside.
• Mix cooled potatoes and 1 1/2 cups flour together on a clean work surface. Knead until dough is soft and smooth, 4 to 5 minutes, adding only enough flour so dough comes together and is not tacky.
• Cut dough into 4 equal parts. Roll 1/4 of the dough into a 3/4-inch log. Cut the log into 3/4-inch pieces. Roll the pieces over a gnocchi board or the back of a fork to create ridges and place onto a floured sheet pan in a single layer. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Let rolled gnocchi dry for 1 hour before cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Melt butter for cheese sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add chicken stock and continue to whisk until it thickens, about 3 minutes. Add Fontina cheese and Parmesan cheese; stir using a spoon until melted. Stir in sage and nutmeg. Stir in cooked gnocchi and transfer to a casserole or baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until just simmering. Add two-thirds of the cheese; stir until melted. Stir in nutmeg and the pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer gnocchi with a slotted spoon to buttered dish. Repeat process with remaining gnocchi.
• Pour cheese sauce over gnocchi, and gently toss. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Bake gnocchi until golden brown, about 25 minutes

Steps:

• 1. In large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallot and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add pancetta and cook until lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper.
• 2. Slowly stir jar of sauce into skillet and add peas. Simmer for 2 minutes.
• 3. Bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi until they start to float. Remove gnocchi with a slotted spoon and add to sauce. Stir gently to ensure all gnocchi are covered in sauce.
• 4. Transfer gnocchi and sauce into 9x9 baking dish and top with mozzarella.
• 5. Place in oven and broil until cheese is melted and begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from oven and rest for 2 minutes before serving.
