WEEKNIGHT GNOCCHI
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil basil infused recommended
- 300 grams gnocchi Olivieri recommended
- 1 ½ cups basil tomato sauce Neal Brothers recommended
- ½ cup parmesan cheese grated
- 2 springs fresh basil
Instructions
- In a large frying pan on medium heat, add the olive oil.
- Once the oil is heated add the gnocchi and fry. They will plump up and get golden and crispy.
- When the gnocchi is done, turn the heat to a simmer and add the tomato sauce. Mix well coating all the gnocchi and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Take of the heat and stir in the parmesan and ripped up basil leaves.
- Top with extra parmesan if desired.
Notes
I make my own herb infused oils and I have a basil one that I use in this dish, but olive oil works just as well.
If you don't have fresh basil, you can leave it out or add 1 tsp of dried basil.
Any store bought gnocchi and tomato sauce will do, but these are my favourites.
