Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb ground beef (about 450g)
  • 1 onion
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 carrot
  • 2 celery sticks
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoon tomato puree
  • 1 teaspoon italian herb blend dried
  • 1 lb gnocchi (about 450 g)
  • 2 cups beef broth stock
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese grated
  • 1 tablespoon parsley chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat up the oil in a pan set over a medium heat.
  2. Chop the onion and fry until golden, then add the chopped garlic, and leave to fry for a further 30 seconds.
  3. Add the ground beef and use a wooden spatula to break it up into pieces, until it begins to brown.
  4. Peel the carrots and chop them up together with the celery sticks, then add them to the pan together with the beef stock.
  5. Leave to cook with the lid on until the liquid is reduced, then add the tomato puree, seasoning and herbs.
  6. In a separate pan, bring salted water to the boil, then add the gnocchi and cook according to the packet instructions.
  7. When the gnocchi are cooked, drain the water, and add them to the bolognese sauce together with the cheese and parsley.
  8. Give it a good stir, and turn off the heat.

Notes

  • I decided to just add the grated cheese and let me melt without putting it in the oven first, the residual heat from the bolognese was enough to melt it, especially since I used grated mozzarella cheese. You can also leave the lid on for about 5 minutes after you turn the heat off.
  • However, if you want some cheesy goodness, you can pop the dish in the oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and golden, just make sure the dish is oven-proof.
  • You can set the oven to about 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit).One bubbly hot gnocchi bolognese, ready in no time!
