Fry chopped garlic in deep saucepan in little olive oil
Add finely chopped orange sweet pepper
Add chopped, fresh Italian tomatoes (I favour plum tomatoes)
When all is softened from cooking, add a generous splash white wine, turn heat down low
Cook until forming a sauce, then add half a tube of tomato puree to combine and make a thick sauce
When thick sauce has formed, add chopped, tinned (or fresh, cooked) asparagus and keep on low heat
Also add dash of white wine vinegar
Boil kettle of water
If sauce looks complete, remove from hob
Place a new saucepan on hob, add boiled water
When water has bubbled then settled, time to add a bag of fresh gnocchi - takes about 3mins to cook
When gnocchi rises to top, it is cooked, so drain well
Now reintroduce the pan of sauce to the hob, pour in the cooked gnocchi and stir really well so gnocchi is completely covered in the thick sauce
Serves two, or save surplus for next day's lunch. Can serve with whatever cheese or faux cheese you like, but I prefer without.
