GO, GO GNOCCHI
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the gnocchi. Cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, 1-2 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of pasta water, and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
SILKY, SWEET Onion
Place a large pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener (to taste). Remove from the pan, season, and cover.
MAKE IT BUTTERY & CRISPY
Return the pan to medium heat with a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil. When starting to foam, add the gnocchi and fry in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, until browned and crispy, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally).
LOAD WITH FLAVOUR
Remove the pan from the heat and toss through the Onion, the biltong, the sun-dried tomatoes, and the sour cream. Loosen with the reserved pasta water if too thick. Season and set aside.
