Gnocchi Sorentino
chef : Cosima
Step 1 : The Sauce
Place all the following ingredients in a pan, and simmer for 20-30 minutes.
| Passata | 1 carton |
| Water | 1 carton, as passata |
| Lamb stock cube | 1 of |
| Bay leaves | 2 of |
| Tomato & Mascapone Sauce | 500g (from supermarket) |
| Nutmeg | 3 pinches |
| Sugar | 2 heaped teaspoons |
Step 2 : The Gnocchi
Add one packet (400g) of Gnocchi to very salty boiling water (1 heaped teaspoon of salt).
The recommended brand is "Italfresco".
The gnocchi will be done in about 3 minutes. It is done when it floats.
Step 3 : The Mozzerella
Dice up one packet of mozzerella.
I suggest dices just smaller than a single gnocchi ball.
Step 4 : Bringing it all together
Into a baking tray, add :
The sauce
The gnocchi
The mozzerella
A little parmesan
Add the gnocchi carefully, to avoid it sticking.
Place the baking tray into the oven (about 200c) for about 10-20 minutes. This is purely to melt the mozzerella a little.
