Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 brown onion finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced or grated
  • 400 g tin whole plum tomatoes
  • 400 g tin full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 packs gnocchi
  • 100 g fresh spinach
  • 50-70 g dairy-free cheese freshly grated
  • 3-4 tbsp breadcrumbs optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes, then add the garlic for 1 minute.
  • Add the whole plum tomatoes, crushing them with a spatula to release their juices.
  • Add the coconut milk, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Add the gnocchi straight from the pack and stir to coat in the sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gnocchi are tender. This should take roughly 10-12 minutes.
  • Stir in the spinach until wilted, then remove from the heat and top with dairy-free cheese.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted & starts to form a golden crust.
  • This creamy one pot gnocchi bake is best served right away. Enjoy this delicious dish hot alongside a glass of chianti.
