GET THOSE Chickpeas POPPIN’
Place a pot for the gnocchi over a high heat. Fill with water, add a pinch of salt, and leave to come to the boil for step 2. Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, toast the drained Chickpeas for 10-12 minutes until crispy. For the best results, only shift occasionally. If they start to pop out, use a lid to rein them in. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside.
SWEET POTATO TREATS
Once the water is boiling rapidly, use 70ml to dilute the stock and set aside. Pop the gnocchi into the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to float. Drain on completion, place in a bowl, and toss through some oil to prevent sticking. Wipe down the pot for step 3.
TIME TO GET SAUCY!
Once the Chickpeas are crispy, wipe down the pot and return to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil or knob of butter. When heated slightly, fry the grated garlic and Italian Rub for a minute until fragrant, shifting constantly. Stir in the cooked chopped tomatoes and the diluted stock. Simmer for 6-8 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally. Add three-quarters of the halved baby tomatoes and simmer for a further 2-3 minutes until softened, breaking them up as they cook. On completion, season to taste with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice. Keep warm over a low heat while you fry the gnocchi.
NUGGETS OF GOLDEN GNOCCHI
Wipe down the pan and return it to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. Once foaming, brown the gnocchi for 3-5 minutes until crisped. Remove from the heat on completion and add to the pot of sauce. Mix in three-quarters of the grated cheese until melted and evenly distributed. Stir through the crispy Chickpeas and remove from the heat.
IT’S A TOSS UP
Toss together the shredded green leaves, the sliced Radish, and the remaining halved baby tomatoes. Add a drizzle of olive oil, season, and toss again to coat.
