A quick and creamy gnocchi dish made with Yumi’s Red Capsicum and Cashew Dip, sundried tomatoes, parmesan, and basil for a rich and flavorful vegetarian meal.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

1kg store-bought gnocchi

1 tub Yumi’s Red Capsicum and Cashew Dip, plus optional extra to serve

150g semi sundried tomatoes

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1/2 cup grated parmesan

1 cup basil leaves, plus extra to serve

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Boil the gnocchi according to packet instructions. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
  2. Combine the Yumi’s dip, sundried tomatoes, garlic, parmesan, and basil in a blender. Blitz until smooth, adding reserved cooking water as needed to achieve a creamy sauce consistency.
  3. Return the drained gnocchi to the pot and toss with the creamy sauce until well coated.
  4. Divide into bowls, top with an extra dollop of the dip if desired, and scatter with fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor and texture.
  • Adjust sauce thickness with more or less reserved pasta water.
  • For extra richness, stir through a splash of cream before serving.
