But did you know that you can easily prepare gnocchi with your Air Fryer? Discover a delicious recipe for crispy and golden gnocchi, without any particular effort thanks to this innovative cooking appliance.
Why use an Air Fryer to prepare your gnocchi?
The Air Fryer is a household appliance that allows you to cook, fry, grill or roast food using only a small amount of oil or even without oil. Thanks to its hot air circulation system, it offers fast and even cooking while limiting the production of fat. Thus, preparing gnocchi with an Air Fryer is not only healthier but also less messy , since it is not necessary to immerse the gnocchi in a large amount of boiling oil.
Ingredients to make crispy gnocchi in the Air Fryer:
For this recipe we will use:
- 500 g fresh (or frozen) gnocchi
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper from the mill
- Herbs of Provence (optional)
- Grated cheese (optional)
- Thick crème fraîche (optional)
Instructions for preparing and cooking gnocchi:
1. Forvarm luftfryseren din
First, start by preheating your Air Fryer to 200°C for about 5 minutes. Preheating is important because it allows your gnocchi to cook faster and more evenly.
2. Seasoning the gnocchi
While the Air Fryer is preheating, place the gnocchi in a bowl and add the olive oil, salt, pepper and herbes de Provence if using. Mix well so that all the gnocchi are properly coated with oil and seasoning.
3. Cooking gnocchi in the Air Fryer
Then arrange the seasoned gnocchi in a single layer in the basket of your Air Fryer, making sure not to pack them too tightly. The hot air circulation must be optimal to obtain perfect cooking.
Start cooking at 200°C for about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring the gnocchi halfway through cooking to ensure even and crispy cooking. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the gnocchi and your Air Fryer, so be sure to check their progress regularly.
4. Add grated cheese and/or cream (optional)
Hvis du ønsker det, kan du tilsette revet ost i gnocchiene noen minutter før de er ferdigstekt, slik at osten smelter og rasper litt. Du kan også ledsage de kokte gnocchiene dine med en kremet saus laget med tung fløte og pepper, noe som vil gjøre denne retten enda mer deilig.
Noen ideer til å ledsage din Air Fryer gnocchi :
Gnocchiene dine tilberedt i Air Fryer kan nytes alene eller sammen med andre ingredienser for å skape en komplett og velsmakende rett. Her er noen forslag:
- Brun fersk spinat med hvitløk og smør, og bland den med gnocchien.
- Tilsett biter av grillet kylling eller kokte reker for en mer proteinrik versjon.
- Server gnocchiene med en hjemmelaget tomatsaus, drysset med fersk basilikum og revet parmesan.
- Kombiner gnocchien med grønnsaker stekt i Air Fryer, for eksempel squash, paprika eller cherrytomater.
