Gnocchi:

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/2 cup sliced Vidalia onions

1/2 cup sliced cippolini onions

1/2 cup sliced shallots

Salt and pepper

1/4 to 3/4 cups flour

2 tablespoons butter

1 cup baby shiitake mushrooms

2 tablespoons Madeira

2 tablespoons Marsala

Porcini butter, recipe follows

1 pint daikon sprouts

Porcini Butter:

1 cup porcinis

8 ounces butter

Salt and pepper

Gnocchi: In a small sauti pan over high heat add the cippolini and Vidalia

onions and the shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to stir until

the onions begin to brown and become loose. Remove from pan and place in the

refrigerator. To make the gnocchi, puree the onions in a food processor.

Place the puree in a bowl. Add the flour in small amounts and mix until well

incorporated. Knead the dough for approximately 1 minute. Divide the dough

and roll each portion into a long log about as thick as a penny, using a

lightly floured surface. Cut into small pieces about 1/2 -inch. Place the

gnocchi on a floured pan and refrigerate. Place the gnocchi in a pot of

boiling water and cook until they begin to float, 1 to 2 minutes. When

cooked place in an ice water bath. When cool, remove from ice water and

refrigerate. In a saute pan over medium heat, add the butter. When the

butter is just turning brown add the gnocchi and baby shiitakes and stir.

When the gnocchis are beginning to brown add the Madeira and Marsala and

reduce for about 3 minutes and finish with the porcini butter. Porcini

Butter: Dice porcinis and butter into small pieces. Place ingredients into a

food processor and puree. Mix until incorporated. Season with salt and

pepper. Place the gnocchi and baby shiitakes around the plate, spooning the

sauce over the gnocchi and the mushrooms. Top with the daikon sprouts.
