Name: Creamy Chorizo Gnocchi
Yield: 6
Ingredients: 8oz. Chorizo, cured; 1 medium red onion; 200g zucchini; 3 cloves garlic; 1/4 t. oregano; 2 T. tomato paste; 3/4 c. chicken stock; 3/4 c. heavy cream; 1/2 small bunch basil; 1/3 c. parmesan, freshly grated; 7oz. baby plum tomatoes; 1 lb. gnocchi; salt and pepper

Steps

Slice the chorizo into thin rounds and finely dice the onion. Add the chorizo to a large pan with the heat off. Turn to medium and fry for 3-4 mins until it crisps and releases its oil. During this time slice the courgette into small bite-sized pieces.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the chorizo, leaving the excess fat behind, then add the onion and courgette. Fry for around 4 mins until they soften and start taking on color. During this time finely dice the garlic and basil.

Stir in the garlic, oregano, and a good pinch of salt and pepper and fry for 30 seconds or so. Stir in the tomato paste and fry for a minute, then stir in the stock and cream. Stir in the basil and parmesan, then simmer for 3-4 mins until the sauce thickens. During this time halve the tomatoes

Stir in the tomatoes and simmer for 2 mins until they only just start to soften.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to boil and add the gnocchi. Cook for 1 minute, then use a slotted spoon to transfer it into the sauce. Add the chorizo, then turn the heat to low and give everything a good stir until combined. If you need to thin out the sauce just stir in a splash of the leftover gnocchi water.

Serve with extra parmesan and basil.
