15 Minute One Pot Gnocchi

This easy 15 minute one pot gnocchi recipe uses tomatoes, garlic, gnocchi and herbs to make a speedy dinner. It’s vegan friendly and can be easily adapted to add more veggies if you want.

What’s in this one pot gnocchi?

Tomatoes- These add such a bold flavour so keep your eye out for whatever is grown in season / locally for the best flavour. 

Gnocchi- Fresh gnocchi is ready in about 2 minutes so perfect for a speedy week night meal. Even better it’s all cooked in one pot to save on washing up.

Tomato Puree- This will add a bit more depth and colour to the dish, mix it in with the water.

Fresh herbs- This is the key to the recipe being really fragrant, you want loads of fresh basil.

Toasted Seeds- This is another brilliant ingredient to have as it adds crunch as well as a delicious nutty flavour that compliments the tomatoes.

Cooking Tips:

Don’t drown the gnocchi – I used just enough water to cover the base of the pan to heat up the gnocchi. If you’re using dried gnocchi, you will need to add a little more water as it will need to absorb. 

Season to perfection – a top tip is to season as you go, you want a good pinch of salt and pepper to really highlight all the flavours.
