Fresh, zesty and ready in just 15 minutes.


This easy summer dinner combines crispy Sunny & Luna Spinach Gnocchi with golden courgettes and smooth, lemony ricotta.


Creamy, crunchy and full of fresh flavour, it’s exactly the kind of simple gnocchi recipe we want to make on repeat.


Crispy spinach gnocchi with lemon ricotta, golden courgettes and fresh basil

INGREDIENTS

You’ll need -

1 pack Sunny & Luna Spinach Gnocchi

1 courgette, thinly sliced

2 tbsp ricotta

1 lemon, zested and juiced

Olive oil

A pinch of salt

Fresh basil, to serve

Cracked black pepper, to serve

Extra virgin olive oil, to finish


INSTRUCTIONS

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan. Add the courgette and a pinch of salt, then cook for around 5 minutes until softened and beginning to brown.


Add the juice of half the lemon and toss everything together. Remove the courgette from the pan and set aside.


Add another drizzle of olive oil to the same pan, followed by the Sunny & Luna Spinach Gnocchi. Cook for around 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy.


Meanwhile, add the ricotta, lemon zest and the juice of the remaining lemon half to a bowl. Reserve a little zest for serving, if you like, then stir until smooth and creamy.


Spread the lemony ricotta onto two plates and top with the crispy gnocchi and courgettes.


Finish with fresh basil, cracked black pepper, the reserved lemon zest and a drizzle of good-quality extra virgin olive oil.


Enjoy!
