This vegan brown butter gnocchi really is one of the simplest and tastiest vegan meals you can throw together. It’s a particularly good camping dinner because it’s so quick and easy, with only four ingredients – gnocchi, butter, lemon and sage – and takes minutes to prepare. Fresh sage is best as its earthy, sharp taste complements the sweet, salty butter flavour perfectly. We are lucky enough to have a sage bush in our garden, but you should be able to find it easily in the fresh produce aisle.
Serves two.
Ingredients
1 packet vegan gnocchi (we used these)
2 tbsp salted butter (we used Naturli)
2 handfuls of fresh sage leaves
1 unwaxed lemon
Method
Heat the butter in a pan until melted, stirring until it turns foamy then add the sage leaves and fry for a minute or so till they go dark green.
Set the sage leaves aside and add the gnocchi, frying on each side until they are golden.
Add 100ml boiling water to the pan, and cook the gnocchi for another couple of minutes.
Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice.
