🥟 Crispy gnocchi in the Air Fryer: the viral TikTok recipe
Transform simple gnocchi into addictive chips! Ready in 15 minutes, this perfectly golden snack is ideal for appetizers or to boost a salad.

💡 Why is everyone crazy about gnocchi in an Air Fryer?

The starch in gnocchi, combined with the pulsed heat of the Air Fryer, creates a unique texture: crispy like a chip on the outside and fluffy like a cloud on the inside. It's faster than the oven and much healthier than traditional deep frying!

🛒 Ingredients

Serves 4

🥔 400 g
Fresh gnocchi

🫒 2 tbsp
Olive oil

🧀 40 g
Parmesan

🌿 1 tsp
Herbs / Spices

⚡ Preparation steps

1. Seasoning: In a bowl, mix the gnocchi (uncooked!) with the oil, cheese, and spices. Shake well!

2. Cooking: Preheat to 200°C. Distribute the gnocchi in the basket without overcrowding them.

3 The Secret: Cook for 12 to 15 minutes . Shake the basket every 5 minutes for even browning.

🤩 Pro-Tip: For a "Pub Chips" effect, serve them with a yogurt-lemon sauce or a spicy tomato sauce.

🤫 Tips for success

Fresh gnocchi: It is essential to use gnocchi from the refrigerated section for a soft center.
Spicy version: Add smoked paprika or a touch of Espelette pepper.
Zero waste: If there are any left over, they can be warmed for 3 minutes in the Air Fryer to regain their crispness.

❓ FAQ

Should they be boiled first?

No! The secret to crispiness is to put them directly into the Air Fryer without going through boiling water.

Can you use pan-fried gnocchi?

Yes, that works very well too, the cooking time will just be a little shorter (about 10-12 min).
