- 9. Work the dough on a work surface.

- 14. The sausages should be about as thick as your thumb.
- 15. Cut the sausages into small pieces.
- 16. Lightly dust the gnocchi with flour.

- 23. They are then cooked through.
- 24. Melt the butter in a pan.
- 25. Let the butter brown slightly.
- 26. This creates a nutty flavor.
- 27. Chop the fresh sage finely.
- 28. Add the sage to the hot butter.
- 29. Season the butter with pepper and salt.
- 30. Drain the gnocchi.
- 31. Add the gnocchi directly to the pan with the butter.
- 32. Toss the pan so the gnocchi are well coated.
- 33. Turn off the stove.
- 34. This prevents the gnocchi from overcooking.
