Smoked Salmon and Vodka Gnocchi

Recipe Description

I adore gnocchi and this Smoked Salmon and Vodka Gnocchi is one of my favorite weekday dinners. It reminds me of the delicious meals I ate in Italy. You can omit the vodka if you don’t like cooking with alcohol. 

To make this, start by frying onion in a skillet until softened. Add cherry tomatoes and cook until they have broken down. Increase the heat and add the vodka. Cook while stirring until the vodka evaporates. Place a large pan of water over heat and bring to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook until the pieces start to float. Drain and transfer to the frying pan with the sauce. Stir in the cream, smoked salmon, chives and plenty of seasoning. 

To make my Smoked Salmon and Vodka Gnocchi, you will need the following ingredients:

Superb. Made this with my wife last week and felt transported back to Italy. The gnocchi was light, and the smokiness of the salmon combined with the vodka sauce was just sensational. Will definitely be making this again.
