Gnocchi alla Sorrentina: Method
- Slice the mozzarella and place it in a colander to drain excess water.
- In a large pan, sauté a clove of garlic in the oil. As soon as it starts to turn golden, remove it and add the Mutti tomato pulp.
- Season with salt and pepper, add the basil leaves, and cover with a lid. Continue cooking for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi in plenty of salted boiling water. As soon as they rise to the surface, scoop them out with a slotted spoon and transfer them to the pan with the tomato sauce.
- Gently mix and season with two tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Place half of the gnocchi at the bottom of a baking dish, cover with half of the mozzarella, then add the remaining gnocchi. Cover the surface with the rest of the mozzarella and finish with the remaining Parmesan.
- Bake under the grill at 250°C (482°F) for 5-7 minutes.
