Gnocchi with basil pesto

Gnocchi with basil pesto

Our delicious basil pesto pays homage to the culinary traditions of Liguria, a region in the northwest of Italy, which is home to the beautiful Italian Riviera. This stunning stretch of coastline is adorned by charming towns with picturesque marinas that are lined with alluring eateries. Whilst the glamour of the riviera attracts yachts full of aristocrats and a-listers, it is the simplicity and authenticity of Liguria’s cuisine that appeals most of all to us. With just a handful of fresh ingredients, local nonne - grandmothers - can whip up a feast, drawing on a culinary heritage that has stood the test of time. Our pesto recipe is a tribute to the dramatic port city of Genoa, incorporating the traditional ingredients that this classic salsa - sauce - should.

To complement our pesto in all its glory, our chefs have chosen to pair it with gnocchi. Once crafted by local cooks using rustic, wooden tools to shape their gnocchi, giving them a distinctive shape and form that we, to this day, draw inspiration from.

Note: Please consume or freeze our pasta and sauces within 2 days of delivery.

METHOD

1. Melt a knob of butter in a non-stick pan or heat a tablespoon of oil
2. Add the gnocchi and fry over medium heat, turning from time to time
3. Fry the gnocchi for at least 2 minutes until crisp and golden
4. Whilst the gnocchi cooks, put the pesto in a bowl and add 3 Tbsp (45ml) boiling water. Take care to ensure you squeeze all the sauce from the pouch
5. Once cooked, transfer the gnocchi to the pesto. Toss gently to coat

Whilst we recommend frying gnocchi, alternatively you can boil it for 2 minutes in salted boiled water.
