Inspired by Nigella Lawson's Rapid Roastini (from her cookbook Kitchen) are gnocchi that are shallow fried in a little olive oil until golden. They become golden and crispy on the outside and are soft in the centre. We have added a mellow combination of buttery, earthy mushrooms, fragrant shallot and garlic, making a meal that's screams comfort food. A super quick, one pan dinner that is sure to please.

First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Deepsided Fry Pan

Step 1

1 Prepare Ingredients

Peel and thinly slice shallot. Peel and mince garlic. Pick flatleaf parsley leaves (discarding stems) and roughly chop. Cut mushrooms into slices.

Step 2

2 Saute Mushrooms

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a deep sided fry pan over a medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots, cook until browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and baby spinach to the pan. Cook until the spinach has wilted, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and keep warm.

Tip! If you're adding protein to this recipe; this step is a good place to prepare and properly cook your protein to ensure it is safe to eat.

Step 3

3 Add Gnocchi

Place frying pan back on a medium high heat and add uncooked gnocchi to the pan with 1-2 tbsp of water. Put a lid on the pan and steam for 3 minutes, make sure the water has evaporated and then add olive oil and the butter into the fry pan to brown the gnocchi, tossing occasionally, until golden, 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Tip! The combination of olive oil and butter helps to stop the butter burning.

Step 4

4 Finish Gnocchi

Add the mushroom and spinach mix back to the pan. Add thickened cream, half the parmesan and most of the parsley and toss through mushroom and gnocchi to combine. Check seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper if necessary.

Tip! Reserve some parsley and parmesan for garnish.
