Gordon Ramsey mentioned a [[gnocchi]] recipe in a recent (repeated) "Kitchen Nightmare" and although it was not this recipe, it served as a nudge to dig this recipe out and give it a try.


{{Template:CookTools}}
This dish is very simple and economical and serves as a good [[starter]] or [[main course]]. We had this as a main with spicy beefburgers and fresh tomatoes.
