Gnocchi is like when two perfect people came together and created an even more perfect baby- it's the potato and pasta hybrid which has a wonderful balance between starchy chewiness and smooth glossy texture. In this recipe, we'll toss them in buttery sauce slightly brightened up with lemon, and spiced with garlic and parsley to create a dish so satisfying you'll likely want a second serving.
