Creamy Meat & Mushroom Gnocchi Recipe

Hey Guys! Guess who’s back? Yeah, it’s your fave. I hope everyone is doing fine and keeping their spirits up. Today I have a yummy recipe that would make you want to eat gnocchi every single day of the week. I’ve been playing around with this concept for a while, and I finally came up with a well-blended and delicious recipe for you guys. I know you’ll love it. Get your aprons!

Note: This recipe is very versatile because it can be made with pork shoulder steak as I have done, with boneless chicken thighs, stir-fry beef or even lamb as far as the meat of choice is a tender cut that cooks super fast it should be a great choice.

Ingredients:

  • 500g Gnocchi
  • 500g Pork shoulder steaks (chopped) /Chicken/ Beef /Lamb
  • 250g White Button mushrooms (sliced)
  • 200ml Cooking cream
  • 1/2 Cup Sring onions (chopped)
  • 1/2 Cup Gruyère cheese (grated)
  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Dried rosemary
  • 1/2 Teaspoon White pepper
  • 1 Teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper (1/2 + 1/2)
    1/2 Teaspoon Chilli flakes (or to taste)
    1/4 Cup water

Method:

  1. Boil gnocchi according to package instructions.
  2. Once boiled, drain and rinse over cold running water to stop the cooking process.
  3. Make a spice mix with all the spices except 1/2 tablespoon of freshly ground black pepper and chilli flakes and set aside.
  4. To a sauté pan over high heat, add the vegetable oil and heat it up.
  5. Once hot, add in the meat pieces and fry for 5 minutes (try not to stir it too much so that it doesn’t start to boil).
  6. Add the spice mix to the meat and continue frying for about 3 minutes.
  7. Add in the spring onions, stir and cook for 3 minutes.
  8. Reduce the heat to medium, add in the cooking cream and stir to combine.
  9. Add the chilli flakes and 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
  10. Add the mushrooms and stir to combine.
  11. Add 1/4 cup of water cook for 3 minutes.
  12. Add in the grated cheese, stir to combine, increase the heat to high and cook for 8 minutes.
  13. Add in the gnocchi, stir to combine and cook for a further 3 minutes.
    Garnish with some spring onions/ extra cheese and allow to rest covered off the heat for some minutes before eating. This is to allow the gnocchi to soak up the flavours from the sauce completely.
  • That’s it, my people, your lovely creamy gnocchi that’s also very meaty and umami. This is a very nice lunch/dinner option, so I hope you’ll like it. As always, kindly like this post if you’ve enjoyed it and leave a comment below telling me what you think or if you have any questions.
