Cooking Steps
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, pan-fry gnocchi, tossing occasionally, until golden, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
TIP: Cook the gnocchi in batches if your pan is crowded.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice celery and leek. Finely chop garlic. • Crush black peppercorns (see ingredients) with a mortar and pestle or in their sachet using a rolling pin. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with 1/2 the butter and drizzle of olive oil. Cook celery and leek, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic, crushed peppercorns and garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add tinned cherry tomatoes, the water, brown sugar, vegetable stock powder and remaining butter. Stir to combine and simmer until slightly thickened, 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the gnocchi to the sauce and stir to combine. Sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese. • Reduce heat to low, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, add salad leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Toss to combine and season to taste.
• Divide cheesy cherry tomato and herb gnocchi between bowls. • Sprinkle over toasted almonds. Serve with balsamic salad. Enjoy!
