Ingredients
  

  • 300 grams shop bought gnocchi
  • ½ tsp salt

  • 200 ml double cream
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • 20 grams crushed croutons

Instructions

  •  Cook the gnocchi as per instruction on the pack and gently sieve and drain once cooked.
  • Place the gnocchi back in pan, pour in cream, black pepper and two thirds of the cheese and gently combine and divide into ovenproof mini pots.
  • Scatter the remaining cheese on top the gnocchi pots. Place the pots in an oven proof tray and bake for 8 minutes, until slightly golden.

Notes

This recipe is great way to use cheese leftovers, ideally, cheeses in contrast with flavour and colour.
This is a recipe that takes little time yet impressive, packed with flavours and textures. Replace black pepper with mustard or chilli flakes to switch things up!
This recipe used British cheeses: cheddar, Wensleydale blue, double Gloucester, and red fox.
