Ingredients

  • 400g gnocchi
  • 200g chargrilled vegetables (from the deli counter - I used chargrilled peppers, aubergines, artichokes and semi-dried tomatoes)
  • 2 tbsp red pesto
  • a handful of basil leaves
  • Parmesan or pecorino (or vegetarian alternative), to serve

Method

  1. Boil a large pan of salted water. Add the gnocchi, cook for 2 mins or until it rises to the surface, then drain and tip back into the pan with a splash of reserved cooking water.

  2. Add the chargrilled veg, chopped into pieces if large, red pesto and basil leaves. Serve with shavings of Parmesan or pecorino (or vegetarian alternative).
