CHARRED BROCCOLI BITS
Boil a full kettle. Place a large pan (that has a lid) over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the broccoli pieces for 5-6 minutes until lightly charred. Add a splash of water and a generous squeeze of Lemon juice. Cover with the lid and simmer for 2-3 minutes until cooked through but still al dente. Remove from the pan on completion, season to taste, and set aside.
BOIL THE GNOCCHI
Place a pot for the gnocchi over a high heat and fill with boiling water. Add a pinch of salt and bring back up to the boil. Once boiling, pop in the gnocchi and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to float and are heated through. Drain on completion and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.
CRISP THE GNOCCHI
Return the pan to a high heat with a knob of butter. When it begins to foam, fry the gnocchi in a single layer for 2-4 minutes until starting to brown and crisp. Remove from the pan on completion.
GREEN GODDESS SAUCE
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil or knob of butter, if needed. When hot, fry the grated garlic for about a minute until fragrant. Stir in the white wine and simmer for a minute until absorbed. Add the cream, Lemon zest to taste, and basil pesto. Mix to combine and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced. Pop in the charred broccoli and heat through for about a minute. Finally, gently toss the fried gnocchi through the sauce until warmed and coated. On completion, season to taste and remove the pan from the heat.
DRESS THE LEAVES
Toss a drizzle of oil through the rinsed green leaves and season to taste.
