Gnocchi With Creamy Sage Sauce





A rich sauce covers gnocchi for a delicious and satisfying meal.





For the Sage Sauce:


3 Tbsp. Earth Balance margarine


1 tsp. chopped fresh sage


3/4 tsp. sea salt


1/4 tsp. black pepper





For the Gnocchi:


1 lb. white potatoes, peeled and quartered


Sea salt, to taste


1 1/4 cups white flour


Sage leaves to garnish





For the Sage Sauce:


• In a small saucepan, melt the Earth Balance over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown.


• Remove from the heat and stir in the sage, the sea salt, and the black pepper. Set aside.





For the Gnocchi:


Cook the potatoes in boiling, salted water for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender.


• Stir in a generous amount of the sea salt, drain, and mash until smooth. Transfer to a bowl.


• Sprinkle flour into the bowl with one hand while kneading into the potatoes with the other hand.


• Continue until all the flour is worked in and the dough is smooth. This will take a few minutes (the dough will be sticky at first). Divide into 3 pieces.


• Form each piece into a 1- to 2-inch-thick roll. Cut into 1-inch-long pieces and roll against a fork. Repeat with the remaining dough.


• Drop each gnocchi into heavily salted, boiling water. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until rising to the surface.


• Remove from the water, drain well, and transfer to a warm plate.


• Toss with the Sage Sauce and garnish with the sage leaves.

Reply:Chicken breasts stuffed with sage and mustard butter - Serves 4





Ingredients:





For the sage butter


100g/3½oz butter, softened


12 fresh sage leaves


4 tsp wholegrain mustard


salt and freshly ground black pepper





For the stuffed chicken


4 chicken breasts


8 slices of prosciutto


1 tsp olive oil


For the sauce


125ml/4½fl oz white wine


1 garlic clove


1 fresh sage leaf


salt and freshly ground black pepper





Method


1. Preheat the oven to 170C/340F/Gas 3.


2. Make the sage butter. Chop the sage leaves finely.


3. Place the butter in a bowl, add the chopped sage leaves, mustard, and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix together well.


4. For the chicken, using a sharp knife, slice into the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket.


5. Spoon a quarter of the butter mixture into each pocket and fold to enclose. If you have any of the flavoured butter left over you can roll it into a sausage shape, freeze and use (within a month) in another dish.


6. Place two prosciutto slices on a clean board so that they overlap slightly. Wrap one of the chicken breasts in the slices and roll to enclose. Repeat with the remaining prosciutto slices and chicken breasts.


7. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan. When hot, add the wrapped chicken breasts.


8. Cook over a medium heat until the prosciutto is lightly golden, about two minutes.


9. Turn the breasts over and brown the other side for another two minutes.





Served with mashed potatoes.
Reply:Sage is used primarily in bread stuffings. It is also nice added to melted butter for a sauce over tortalini! Sprinkle with grated cheese.
