  2. Prepare a thickening slurry by mixing cornstarch with cold water until smooth. Gradually stir it into the simmering sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
  3. Boil a large pot of salted water. Cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they rise to the surface.
  4. Drain the gnocchi and set aside. Remove the thyme sprigs from the sauce and stir in Parmesan until melted. Fold in gnocchi.
  5. Season with salt and pepper, then serve hot with additional Parmesan and black pepper.
