Tomato Basil Gnocchi
Truly the most perfect summer gnocchi recipe with burst tomatoes, burrata cheese and herbs!
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 1 pound store bought gnocchi
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
- 1 shallot thinly sliced
- 6 cloves garlic roughly chopped
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup freshly grated parmesan
- fresh basil to garnish
- 1-2 balls burrata to serve
Instructions
- Add the olive oil into a large skillet. Add the cherry tomatoes into the oil and saute for 3-5 minutes until blistered. Once blistered, add the shallot, garlic and red pepper flakes to the skillet and heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer the tomato mixture to a bowl.
- Add the remaining olive oil and butter to the pan and heat until butter is melted. Add gnocchi to the pan and cook on high, stirring frequently for about 5-6 minutes. Flip the gnocchi evenly in the pan for crisp texture on all sides.
- Add the tomatoes back to the pan, sprinkle half the parmesan and give a quick stir to coat well. Remove the gnocchi from the pan and serve with remaining grated parmesan and fresh basil and a small ball of burrata on each portion.
Notes
Burrata is perfect for adding a creamy touch to the finished dish.
