Steps:

• Heat half of the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots and celery and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add half of the wild mushrooms and cook until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then push to the edges of the pot. Add the remaining olive oil and wild mushrooms and cook 3 to 5 more minutes. Add the cremini mushrooms and cook 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, about 2 minutes. Add the wine; cook, scraping up any browned bits, about 2 more minutes. Add the tomatoes, 2 cups water, the bay leaves, coriander, fennel, red pepper flakes, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer over medium heat, about 30 minutes (thin with water if needed). Season with salt and pepper.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi, stir and cook for 1 minute after they float, about 3 minutes total. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the pot with the sauce and gently stir over low heat. Serve topped with mascarpone and/or mint.

GNOCCHI WITH WILD-MUSHROOM SAUTE

Steps:

• Brush the mushrooms to remove any loose dirt and trim away the stems of those, like shiitakes, that have tough stems. Thickly slice the mushrooms if they are large and set aside.
• In a large skillet set over high heat, combine the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. When very hot, add the garlic and cook until it just begins to turn golden, about 1 minute. Immediately add the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms just begin to become tender, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, pepper flakes and tomato paste and cook, stirring, until about 1/2 the liquid has evaporated. Cover the skillet and cook for 5 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi according to directions and drain. Place in a serving bowl or on a platter. Stir the remaining tablespoon of butter into the mushrooms and season to taste with salt. Top the gnocchi with the mushrooms and garnish with chives. Serve immediately with grated Parmesan on the side.
