Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 300 g Broccoli Cut into very small pieces
- 1 Onion Peeled and chopped
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 500 g Gnocchi I used dried
- 25 g Cornflour
- 300 ml Milk
- 300 ml Crème fraîche
- 75 g Parmesan cheese Grated
- 1 tsp Wholegrain mustard
- 1 tsp Garlic granules
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C.
- Put the broccoli, onion and 1 tbsp of the olive oil, with plenty of salt and pepper, into a shallow roasting tin. Stir to coat with the oil. Roast for 10 minutes.
- Add the gnocchi, the remaining oil and stir well. Return to the oven for 10 minutes.
- While it’s in the oven, mix the cornflour with just enough of the milk to make a smooth paste in a small bowl. Then stir in the crème fraîche and whisk until smooth. Add the rest of the milk and whisk again until smooth.
- Add two thirds of the parmesan, the mustard, garlic granules and more salt and pepper.
- Add the creme fraiche mixture to the roasted gnocchi, stir through and sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top. Bake for a further 10 minutes.
Notes
Broccoli chunks: Chop the broccoli up into similar size pieces as the gnocchi so it cooks quickly and before it burns on the outside.
