Potato gnocchi with smoked mozzarella, plum tomatoes, green olives, originally uploaded by lazysundae.
I saw this recipe in a newsletter I get from Cookstr - there were 10 different pasta recipes and I picked this one because it's similar to a pasta my old boss used to make (penne-tomatoes-fresh mozzarella-basil).
This one used smoked fresh mozzarella and green olives, as well as marjoram, an herb I've never used before. It's a little thyme-y. It's a Mario Batali recipe and can be seen here.
It came out super delicious - gnocchi is kind of hard to cook with because it goes gooey so fast. They were not by any means overcooked, but I feel like they can't really stand up to a good pan fry, to get the toasted outsides like I wanted.
I used the Whole Foods brand frozen gnocchi, which were okay. Would definitely make this again, perhaps with homemade gnocchi.
