Sausage and Spinach Gnocchi (Vegetarian)

I love nothing more than throwing ingredients together and getting a great result! I made this for my lunch one day using ingredients I had to hand and it turned out delicious. Of course if you'd prefer you can use non-veggie sausages instead, but I love veggie sausages and use them a lot in my cooking, plus they are much lower in calories so great if you're watching your waistline.

Ingredient

Food ration :

2 servings

500 g

gnocchi,

250 g

baby leaf spinach,

garlic cloves, crushed,

hot red chilli sliced into thin circles, seeds left in,

Vegetarian sausages (I used Linda McCartney),

1 tbsp

salted butter,

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil, ready for cooking the gnocci, in the meantime place the sausages under a grill (or you could use a George Foreman), on a medium heat. As the sausages are cooking heat a frying pan over a medium heat too.

* Step 2

Spray the base of the frying pan with Frylight so it's evenly coated and add the minced garlic. Add the gnocchi to the salted boiling water and begin to cook it.

* Step 3

Add the sliced chillies into the frying pan with the garlic and also the chopped Thyme. Fry for around 1-2 minutes until fragrant, using a spatula to move it around the pan so it doesn't burn.

* Step 4

Add the butter to the frying pan and once melted add the spinach on top and stir a little until it begins to wilt down. Season with salt and pepper and turn the heat down really low to keep warm.

* Step 5

You may need to turn the sausages in the grill now, ensure they don't burn.

* Step 6

Once the gnocchi is floating and cooked, drain it off in a collender. Once drained add it into the frying pan with the spinach. Stir and combine all the ingredients.

* Step 7

Check on the sausages, they should be cooked through by now. Remove from the grill and place onto a chopping board.

* Step 8

Slice up the sausages into bite size pieces then add to the frying pan with the gnocchi, season with a little more salt and pepper. Combine everything together well. Serve up right away into shallow bowls or plates, and enjoy! :)
