Cooking Instructions:
  • Before cooking

    Bring a pot of salted water to the boil over a high heat.

  • 1. TO COOK THE GNOCCHI:

    Once the water is boiling add the gnocchi to the water and cook for 2-3 mins or until gnocchi floats to the top. Drain well into a colander and drizzle with olive oil to stop it from sticking. Remove the Italian parsley leaves from their stalks and roughly chop, set aside.

  • 2. TO COOK THE ASPARAGUS:

    Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and discard – they will naturally snap in the right place. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot add the asparagus, season with salt and cook for 8-10 mins turning regularly. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.

  • 3. TO PREPARE THE TRUFFLE BECHAMEL GNOCCHI:

    Wipe out the pan and place back over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot add the gnocchi, pour in the truffle bechamel sauce and cook for 1-2 mins. Add the peas and baby spinach and cook for a further 1-2 mins until spinach is starting to wilt. Season with salt and pepper.

  • TO SERVE:

    Spoon truffle bechamel gnocchi onto plates. Serve with grilled asparagus on the side and sprinkle with toasted almonds and chopped parsley.
