Tomato and Cheese Gnocchi (V)

First time I ever cooked with this pasta so kept it safe and did a basic tomato sauce with bits of red pepper and cheese. It was lovely and fills you up a treat.

Serves 4

500g Gnocchi
Can of Chopped tomatoes, blended
Red Pepper, de-seeded and chopped
Small glass of red wine
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 onion, chopped finely
Basil leaves
Mozzarella Ball, sliced
Salt and pepper

1. Heat a bit of oil in a pan and fry the red pepper and onion on a low heat for about a couple of minutes then add the crushed garlic and cook for a further minute

2. Pour in the chopped tomatoes, red wine, gnocchi and seasoning. Cook for about 10 minutes or until the pasta is cooked thoroughly.

3. Once the pasta is cooked add the basil. Transfer to a dish and place the sliced mozzarella on the top. Grill for about 5 minutes or until the a mozzarella is golden. Serve
