- Trim the eggplant and dice. Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently fry the garlic, the eggplant pieces and a pinch of chili pepper.
- Cook for about 20 minutes, stirring every so often. Add the white wine and let it reduce over a gentle heat.
- Next, add Mutti® Tomato Puree (Passata) and cook for an additional 10 minutes; finally, add a little parsley and the basil.
- Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi in plenty of salted boiling water, drain when they come to the surface and top with the prepared sauce.
- Lastly, add the diced mozzarella, mix, and serve hot.
- As a variation, you can also add a handful of finely chopped walnuts to the sauce. Instead of the mozzarella, you can use pecorino shavings.
