This is a great midweek supper, ideal when all you want is a big bowl of comforting goodness. The combination of garlic and chilli is a marriage made in heaven which is only enhanced by the bright citrus tang of the lemon.

Ingredients

  • 300 g purple sprouting broccoli, trimmed
  • 500 g gnocchi
  • 1

Method

  1. Blanch the broccoli in salted boiling water for 3-4 minutes. Remove the broccoli with a slotted spoon and plunge into a bowl of ice-cold water to retain the colour.

  2. Drop the gnocchi into the broccoli cooking water to simmer over a low heat according to the packet instructions. Drain the gnocchi, saving a little of the cooking water for the sauce.
