Ingredients
- 1 pound gnocchi (homemade or store-bought store-bought)
FOR THE SAUCE
- 1½ tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup tomato purée (passata)
- ¼ cup water
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon basil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 clove small garlic chopped
TOPPING
- ¾ - 1 cup shredded firm Mozzarella, Swiss, fontina or gruyere cheese
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400F (200C), lightly oil an 8 x 6 inch baking dish.
- In a medium/large pan, add the olive oil, garlic, purée, water, oregano, basil, and salt. Stir to combine, on medium heat cook until thickened (not too thick), approximately 15-20 minutes.
- While sauce is cooking, cook the gnocchi in the boiling salted water, just until they float to the surface, approximately 30 seconds, drain immediately, do not rinse.
- When sauce has thickened add the gnocchi and toss gently, place in the prepared baking pan, top with the shredded Mozzarella and then the grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for approximately 5 minutes then raise heat and broil for another 3-5 minutes or until cheese has browned, (watch it doesn't burn). Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- Once they have been added to the salted boiling water give them a couple of stirs and watch carefully, it doesn’t take long for them to cook 1-2 minutes (sometimes less), once the float to the surface they are done. Remove them immediately. Over cooked and they will turn to mush.
- Any leftover pasta should be covered tightly and stored in the fridge. It will last up to 1-2 days. It can be reheated in a low oven or microwave until warmed through.
