I think that crispy pan-fried gnocchi with crème fraîche is not only super tasty but incredibly easy to make. The gnocchi has a crispy coating and a pillow-like centre, accompanied by ‘meaty’ chestnut mushrooms, tasty broccoli, cheese and flat leaf parsley. Enjoy this twist on a classic Italian dish!
