Homemade Potato Gnocchi Recipe with Arrabbiata Sauce
Potato Gnocchi and Arrabbiata Sauce: This delicious potato gnocchi recipe take a little time but is well worth it after it’s tossed with a zest Arrabbiata sauce and served up with parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
It’s been forever since I last made some homemade gnocchi’s, so I figured it was time for me to whip up a batch and serve it up with a really tasty fresh tomato sauce. Potato gnocchi isn’t at all hard to make, but it does take a little time because you need to bake the potatoes, let them cool, remove the skin, etc. etc. etc. All in all, I’d set aside about 2 hours in total to make gnocchi, but don’t let that scare you because they are absolutely delicious and the freeze well! Gnocchi can also be served up with a variety of things like chicken, vegetables, browned butter, so I thought a spicy Arrabbiata would be a great compliment to this dish.
