Spinach gnocchi with tomato sauce
Instructions:
Basic Potato Gnocchi, made with spinach
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the wine; cook until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add the tomatoes and juice, tomato sauce, basil, and red pepper flakes. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until slightly thick, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer the gnocchi with a slotted spoon to the pan with sauce. Repeat the process with the remaining gnocchi.
- Reheat the gnocchi over low heat; gently toss. Serve with cheese shavings.
