Instructions
• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook gnocchi, tossing occasionally, until golden, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
TIP: Add extra oil if the gnocchi sticks to the pan.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice leek. Grate the carrot.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Add carrot and leek, and cook until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Add onion & garlic paste and Aussie spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add cherry tomatoes, vegetable stock powder, the water and brown sugar. • Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium, and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Add baby spinach leaves, gnocchi and plant-based butter to the sauce. • Stir until wilted and season to taste.
• Divide beef and cherry tomato ragu with gnocchi between bowls. • Sprinkle with a pinch of chilli flakes (if using). Enjoy!
