directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Bring a large pot of water with a small handful of salt to a boil. Cook gnocchi 3-4 minutes or until they float to the surface. Remove and set aside.
  • Heat a deep skillet over medium heat. Grease with a splash of oil and cook ham steak about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from heat and dice into chunks.
  • In the same pan, melt butter and saute garlic and shallots until fragrant (about 1 minute). Whisk in flour, until a paste forms. Slowly add in milk, whisking constantly. Bring this mixture to a light simmer. Add thyme, mustard, and cheeses. Stir until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and stir in 3/4 cup peas, gnocchi, and ham.
  • Transfer mixture to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup peas and breadcrumbs if desired. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until bubbling.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve.
  • Enjoy!

  1. This recipe is excellent. I made exactly as the recipe states. My house smelled so good. It was like being in Olive Garden or Carrabba's. The recipe states it serves 4. It's really more like 6 unless you eat an awful lot.

I have only recently delved into the world of cooking and discovered it's one of my greatest passions now. I love experimenting with new flavors and ideas (my recipe binder won't stop growing!). I am fairly newly out of college (May 2017) and I work as a chemist in upstate NY. I'm very eager to learn and discover more and more over time!
