Method

step 1
Add the pancetta (1 pack) to a cold frying pan and cook over a medium heat until the fat renders and the pancetta is crisp. Drain any excess fat on kitchen paper and set aside, leaving 1 tbsp in the pan.
step 2
Fry the breadcrumbs (40 g) until golden, add half the parsley (7.5 g) and set aside.
step 3
In a bowl mix together the egg yolks (3), whole egg (1) and parmesan (40 g). Season with black pepper.
step 4
Cook the gnocchi (1 kg) in a pan of boiling water for around 3 minutes, until the gnocchi float to the surface. Reserve a cup of cooking water and drain.
step 5
Melt the butter (1 pack) in the saucepan and then add the gnocchi and remaining parsley (7.5 g), stirring to coat.
step 6
Remove from the heat and then add the egg and parmesan mix. Stir and add some of the gnocchi water if needed to create a silky, glossy sauce that clings to the gnocchi.
step 7
Add the gnocchi to a serving dish and top with the suino nero, parsley breadcrumbs and a good crack of black pepper.
