Ingredients

  • Finnebrogue pork sausages 400 g
  • red onion 1 (chopped)
  • garlic granules 2 tsp
  • dried oregano ½ tbsp
  • tomato purée 2 tbsp
  • chopped tomatoes 1
  • gnocchi 800 g
  • chicken stock cube 1
  • grated mozzarella 100 g
  • fresh basil to serve

Method

Cook the Finnebrogue pork sausages

  • Heat a dash of oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the Finnebrogue pork sausages and cook for 6 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Transfer from the pan and when cool enough to handle slice them into thin rounds.

Chop the red onion & prep the stock

  • While the sausages are cooking, peel and chop the red onion.
  • Make up the chicken stock cube with 50 ml boiling water per serving. (So if you're cooking for 4 people, you'll need 200 ml).

Cook the sauce

  • In the same pan you cooked the sausages in, add the red onion and cook for a few minutes.
  • Stir in the garlic granules, oregano and tomato purée then cook for a minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the chopped tomatoes and chicken stock.
  • Tip the gnocchi into the pan, along with most of the chopped sausage (reserve a handful of sausage to scatter on top of the bake).
  • Simmer for 5 minutes, then check the seasoning and adjust to taste.
  • Preheat the grill to high.

Grill & plate up

  • Scatter the mozzarella and reserved sausage on top of the gnocchi.
  • Pop the pan under the grill for 5 - 7 minutes, until golden and bubbling.
  • Leave it to stand for a few minutes, then scatter over the basil and plate up and enjoy!
