Gnocchi & Tomato Bake
Prep: 5 mins
Cook: 25 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 red pepper, deseeded and finely chopped 1 stick of celery, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
400g can chopped tomatoes
500g pack gnocchi
handful basil leaves, torn
half a 125g ball mozzarella, torn into chunks
Method
Heat grill to high. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, then soften the onion and celery for 5 mins. Stir in the garlic, fry for 1 min, tip in the tomatoes and gnocchi, then bring to a simmer. Bubble for 10-15 mins, stirring occasionally, until the gnocchi is soft and the sauce has thickened. Season, stir through the basil, then transfer to a large ovenproof dish.
Scatter with the mozzarella, then grill for 5-6 mins until the cheese is bubbling and golden
Om nom nom om nom. Warm and filling and tasty. Definitely adding to my repertoire. Although there was something missing, not entirely sure what though. I think next time there will be meatballs added to the mix. But there will most certainly be a next time
