Description
Cauliflower replaces potato to make lighter gnocchi, delicious with pesto and lemon.
Method
Step 1 of 5
Fill a large pot with water, add the stock cube and bring to the boil. Add the cauliflower and cook for 8-9 minutes until tender. Drain and in two batches, place the florets on a clean tea towel, wrap up tightly and squeeze out excess water over the sink.
Step 2 of 5
Place the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse to form crumbs. Add the flour and pulse to form a sticky dough.
Step 3 of 5
Tip the dough on to a floured surface and roll into a ball. Cut in 4 and shape each quarter into a long, thin rope. Cut into gnocchi.
Step 4 of 5
Heat half the oil in a large, non-stick pan and fry half the gnocchi for 2-3 minutes until browned. Pour in a splash of water and cook for 1 minute to steam and soften the gnocchi. Remove from the pan and repeat with the other half.
Step 5 of 5
Place all the gnocchi back in the pan and pour over the pesto, lemon juice and lemon zest. Cook for 2 minutes to heat through. Divide into 4 bowls, top with cheese and black pepper and serve.
