INGREDIENTS
150g Potato Gnocchi
175g Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
150g Cherry Tomatoes
30g Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 Large Egg (Poached)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the cherry tomatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, and half of the chopped basil, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast for 10-12 minutes until they are blistered and softened.
While the tomatoes are roasting, cook the potato gnocchi in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions, usually until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the ricotta cheese with a few spoonfuls of the pasta water to create a creamy sauce. Stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted.
Gently fold the cooked gnocchi into the ricotta-spinach sauce, ensuring even coating.
Plate the ricotta gnocchi, spoon the roasted cherry tomatoes on top, and garnish with the remaining basil.
Top the dish with a perfectly poached egg. Break the yolk over the warm gnocchi to add an extra layer of creaminess before serving.
