Ingredients
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 8 garlic cloves (minced)
- (1) ounce can whole tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- (2) ounce packages gnocchi
- 1/3 cup fresh basil leaves (chopped)
- 8 ounces Fresh Burrata or Fresh Mozzarella
Optional:
- 1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
- 1 cup baby spinach
Instructions
- Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Don't cook too long or the garlic will burn. Before you add the garlic, have the tomatoes ready to add.
- Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Break up the whole tomatoes with a spoon or with kitchen shears. You can also puree the tomatoes in a blender before adding if you desire a completely smooth sauce.
- While the sauce is simmering, heat a large pot filled with water over high heat until boiling. Generously salt the water. Add the gnocchi and cook according to package instructions (about two minutes). Remove about 2/3 cup of pasta water to add to tomato sauce. Drain the pasta and set aside.
- Add about 1/2 to 2/3 cup of reserved pasta water to the sauce. Once the sauce has simmered for about 10-15 minutes, pour in heavy cream. Add in fresh basil leaves. Taste for seasonings
- Add in gnocchi and fold together so it is completely covered in sauce. Sprinkle with freshly grated parmigiano reggiano or parmesan cheese, if using.
- Serve with fresh burrata cheese, torn into pieces on top of the gnocchi.
Notes
- Substitutions and Variations:
- There are several substitutions you can make in this easy gnocchi pasta dish. If you desire to use fresh tomatoes, use small grape or cherry tomatoes.
- For extra freshness, add baby spinach leaves to the sauce.
- Top with either fresh burrata or fresh mozzarella cheese.
