A simple but authentically flavored dish that is fresh and light. Fresh tomato or flavored passata envelops Lo Gnocco’s gnocchi without weighing them down, giving a lively, Mediterranean flavor.
Ingredients
– 500 g gnocchi
– 400 g tomato puree or peeled tomatoes
– 1 clove of garlic
– Extra virgin olive oil to taste
– Salt, pepper to taste
– Fresh basil to taste
– 3 l water, 30 g salt
Preparation
- Sauce (10 min): Brown garlic in a little oil, add tomato puree, salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until sauce is smooth and fragrant. Add fresh basil at the end of cooking.
- Cooking gnocchi: Bring water to boil with salt, cook gnocchi until they rise to the surface (2-3 min).
- Assembly: Drain the gnocchi and toss them in the sauce for 1-2 min so they season well. Serve hot.
👉 For a gourmet touch, add a sprinkling of parmesan or a few slivers of pecorino and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil raw; stir continuously, blending everything together. Finally, all that remains is to serve the gnocchi, and garnish with more fresh basil leaves.
