@maria cooked vegan chicken and mushroom gnocchi
recipe
- drizzle some cooking oil into a pan with some fennel seeds and wait for it to heat up
- cut carrots into thin slices and add them to the oil with a pinch of salt, stirring and sautéeing until they've softened a little
- add finely chopped onions, optionally some leeks, and peppers to the pan with another sprinkling of salt
- once the onions in particular seem like they're getting closer to being cooked, add a good helping of mushrooms to the pan with some crushed garlic and another sprinkling of salt
- once everything seems like it's getting cooked and brown and fragrant, add in a generous helping of smoked paprika, ground cumin, ground coriander and ground pepper and let it cook in for a few minutes
- squeeze in some tomato purée and stir it into the sautéed veg, following up with a carton of tomato passata
- sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste, a dash of lemon juice if you like a bit of zing, a generous sprinkling of basil and oregano and then let it simmer for a while to get all nice and scrumptious
- in the meanwhile, cook your gnocchi in some salted boiling water - it shouldn't take long, only a few minutes. once they're done you can drain the water away and drop the gnocchi into the sauce and let it cook through a little longer
- ta-da! yum yum yum gnocchi mm yummy!
