Cut the cabbage into quarters, remove and discard the tough central "stalk", and finely shred the cabbage leaves.

Heat a 28cm or 11" frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the butter.When the butter has melted and begins to foam, add the gnocchi, walnut halves, fennel seeds and remaining salt, then fry until lightly golden; this should take 4-5 minutes.
Pour in the balsamic vinegar and cook for 60 seconds, stirring and tossing constantly.
Transfer the cabbage, sage and Vermouth mixture to the gnocchi and toss to combine for 30-60 seconds.
