A delicious and quick recipe for Gnocchi in the Air Fryer

Gnocchi are one of the Italian culinary specialties that delight gourmets. And for good reason, their delicious taste and soft texture make them a very popular and comforting dish. 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. Pré-aqueça a fritadeira

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)

Se desejar, você pode adicionar queijo ralado ao nhoque alguns minutos antes do final do cozimento, para que ele derreta e rale levemente. Você também pode acompanhar o nhoque cozido com um molho cremoso feito com creme de leite e pimenta, o que tornará esse prato ainda mais delicioso.

Algumas ideias para acompanhar seu nhoque na fritadeira:

Seu nhoque cozido na Air Fryer pode ser apreciado sozinho ou com outros ingredientes para criar um prato completo e saboroso. Aqui estão algumas sugestões:

• Doure um pouco de espinafre fresco com alho e manteiga e misture com o nhoque.
