Method

You will need

Grater
  1. 1.

    Boil a kettle then chop your Tenderstem broccoli in half

    Trim, then chop your green beans in half then slice your sweet pea pods in half lengthways

    Adding chorizo? Fry your diced chorizo and cook for 4-5 min or until crisp

    Added chicken? Cook at 220°C / 200°C (fan) / gas 7 for 18-20 min

  2. 2.

    Add your gnocchi, chopped Tenderstem broccoli, halved green beans and sliced sweet pea pods to a pot of boiled water with a large pinch of salt and bring to the boil over a high heat

    Cook for 3 min or until the gnocchi begins to rise to the top of the pot

    Once done, drain everything

  3. 3.

    Meanwhile, trim, then chop your spring onions finely

  4. 4.

    Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat

    Once hot, add the drained gnocchi, Tenderstem broccoli, sliced sweet pea pods and green beans with the chopped spring onion and cook for 4-5 min or until beginning to crisp

    Tip: Don't stir too often as this will prevent the gnocchi from crisping!

  5. 5.

    Meanwhile, peel half your Italian hard cheese with a peeler until you end up with a pile of cheese shavings

    Grate the remaining Italian hard cheese finely

  6. 6.

    Once the gnocchi has crisped, add 20g butter to the pan with a squeeze of your lemons

    Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up until the butter has melted – this is your zingy green veg gnocchi

  7. 7.

    Cut the remaining lemon into 1 wedge per person

  8. 8.

    Serve the zingy green veg gnocchi topped with the grated Italian hard cheese and cheese shavings

    Garnish with a lemon wedge and season with a grind of black pepper

    Enjoy!
