A 5-minute, low-fat, low-calorie Mediterranean gnocchi is made using chargrilled vegetables from the deli counter, red pesto, basil, and cheese.
| Cooking Time: 5 Minutes | Serves: 2 | Level: Easy |
1. Boil Gnocchi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes or until the gnocchi rises to the surface, then drain and return to the pan with a splash of reserved cooking water.
2. Add Chargrilled Vegetables: Add the chargrilled vegetables, chopped if large enough, red pesto, and basil leaves. Serve with Parmesan.
A method of cooking in which food is placed directly on a grill over a fuel source such as charcoal or wood, causing the surface to burn or char slightly. This forms a flavorful crust on the food’s surface while sealing in the natural juices. The smoke from the fuel source permeates the food, enhancing its flavour.
Heat a dry cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Place the halved vegetable, cut sides down, on the hot surface. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the vegetable begins to release moisture. Lift carefully to check the char level; it should be dark brown, not black.
Preheat a pan or a grill pan for 4-5 minutes over medium high heat. Toss the vegetables in the olive oil and spice mixture. To test whether the pan is hot enough, splash some water on it. On contact, the water should sizzle and steam.
It takes 3 minutes to boil gnocchi on high flame. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Drop in gnocchi and cook for 3 minutes; drain and serve. It’s that simple.
