In theory, this should have been a winner. Gnocchi? Love it. Butter? Our love is pure and true. Crispy Chilli Oil? Yes, please.
But somehow, it didn’t work. In fairness, Tim liked it more than I did, but I just didn’t enjoy it. It’s a funny thing– like a good on paper boyfriend, it should have worked out, but it didn’t.
Alas, it was yet another “It was fine, it fed us,” dish from this cookbook. I’m beginning to suspect that being hamstrung by six ingredients might not work for the fine people at MOB. Up until this cookbook, I really liked all of their recipes. But having a few duds in a row is not a great look.
You can’t win them all.
