Crispy three-cheese gnocchi with tomato dip

By Lesego Madisa

Serves 4 as a snack or starter

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cooking Time 10–15 minutes

Ingredients

500 g Woolworths Three Cheese Filled Gnocchi
2 T olive oil
1 cup Woolworths tomato passata with basil
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
40 g Parmesan, finely grated

Method

1. Preheat the air-fryer to 200°C. Toss the gnocchi in the olive oil and arrange in a single layer in the air-fryer basket. Air-fry for 10–15 minutes, shaking halfway, until golden and crispy.

2. Meanwhile, gently warm the tomato passata in a small saucepan and season to taste.

3. Serve the hot gnocchi sprinkled with Parmesan and a side of tomato dip for dunking.

Cook’s note: These gnocchi bites also work well as party snacks. Serve with toothpicks and a sprinkle of chilli flakes for extra kick.
