It’s quite a fancy dinner. And the fact that you can make it in about 15 minutes makes it even better.
The mini asparagus cooks very fast, and the fine oyster mushrooms cooks even faster. Be careful not to overcook any of this, it goes extremely fast. That’s why its good to have both the asparagus and the oyster mushroom ready to begin with, so everything can be cooked easy and fast.
While cooking the sauce the water will be boiled, and the gnocchi only needs 1-2 minutes of boiling time, these can also be overcooked easily, so don’t be concerned that this is gonna take long to make all of this, just do it fast and you will get a super great result !
This dish is very comforting and easy, warm flavours from the nutmeg and the fresh sage makes this creamy sauce perfect and pairs well with both the asparagus and the mushrooms !
