  1. SEEDS

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pot over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. GNOCCHI

    Return the pot with salted water and bring to a boil for the gnocchi. Cook the gnocchi until they float to the surface, 1-2 minutes. Drain, reserve 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of the pasta water, and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.

  3. CRISPY GNOCCHI

    Return the pot to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. Fry the cooked gnocchi in a single layer until golden, 2-4 minutes (shifting as they colour). Remove from the pot and set aside.

  4. ALL TOGETHER

    Return the pot to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the Onion until soft, 3-4 minutes. Mix in the reserved pasta water, the pesto créme, the Spinach, the peas, and the gnocchi. Simmer until the peas are warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and add seasoning.

  5. TIME TO EAT

    Bowl up the gnocchi and scatter over the seeds. Well done, Chef!
