INGREDIENTS
150g Potato Gnocchi
150g Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
3 Egg Whites
150g Fresh Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
10g Parmesan Cheese
1 Garlic Clove
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Halve the fresh tomatoes and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle a pinch of salt, and add the crushed garlic. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes until the tomatoes begin to caramelize.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi according to the package instructions until they float to the top, then drain.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese with egg whites. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Stir until smooth.
Mix the cooked gnocchi with the ricotta mixture while still warm, allowing the heat to slightly thicken the sauce.
Fold in the roasted tomatoes gently, preserving some texture from the caramelized bits. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan and chopped fresh basil over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy a hearty, flavorful meal that balances creaminess with the bright, fresh flavors of herb-roasted tomato sauce.
