This is a lovely little one-pot-wonder, great for a busy week night. The gnocchi cooks in the cheesy crème fraîche sauce, soaking up all the juices and flavours, a great way to prepare them!
You start by sautéeing some onions and garlic, then add 2 chopped up pork sausages (you can also use vegetarian sausages if you prefer) and brown on all sides, ± 5 minutes. Add the bimi stems and the tomatoes. Stir fry for ± 3 minutes. Add 100 ml crème fraîche, a good grating of parmesan and season with pepper and salt. Mix through the uncooked gnocchi and stir carefully so they’re all coated. Top off with the bimi tops, some sage leaves and some extra grated parmesan. Roast in the oven for ± 15 minutes @ 200°C until bubbling and starting to brown. Enjoy!
