Description

This super green gnocchi dish is far lighter than the original but packed with flavour.

Method

Step 1 of 6

Place the thawed spinach in a sieve in the sink and squeeze out excess moisture. This will reduce the weight by half. Finely chop and add to a large bowl with ricotta, parmesan, flour, nutmeg and eggs. Mix well with your hands, cover and place in the fridge to chill for 1 hour.

Step 2 of 6

Add the oil to a large pan on medium heat and cook the onion for 5-6 minutes until softened. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, reduce the heat and leave to simmer for 30 minutes, until thickened.

Step 3 of 6

Remove the pan from the heat and blend with a hand blender until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4 of 6

Flour a large chopping board, scoop dessertspoons of gnocchi mixture, roll into balls with your hands and toss in the flour to coat.

Step 5 of 6

Bring a wide, shallow pan of water to the boil and reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook the gnocchi in batches for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.

Step 6 of 6

Place the pan back on the heat and warm the sauce through. Drain the gnocchi well and divide between 6 bowls. Pour the sauce over the gnocchi, top with grated parmesan and serve.
