  1. Has anyone tried this with frozen gnocchi? It tends to have some ice crystals so I wonder if it would sputter too much.

  2. It looks like you re using the Breville Control Freak (induction) here. What pan and temp?

  3. Everyone knows potatoes and flour will not soak up the 6 tbsp of oil so you're not adding hundreds and hundreds of calories to your pasta dinner

  4. Or how about I spray a minute amount of oil over the gnocchi and throw the lot in the air fryer to achieve the exact same effect

  5. Or, yknow, and this is just a wild thought… make it how you want to. Boiling it is just fine. But so is this method, and one is not objectively better than the other, though it may be subjectively better for you. Experiment. Play around.

  6. Yeah, I’m not deep frying my pasta. Don’t want a heart attack thanks. Also, it’s gross. Please continue to boil pasta like normal people.
