• Pan fry the chorizo with 1tbsp olive oil until golden

• In a pan add 1 tbsp of olive oil and fry the chopped onion until it becomes translucent. Deglaze the pan with the white whine add the chopped garlic and cook for one more minute. Finally add the tomatoes, season and cook at medium heat for 10 min

• Add the cream, blend with a hand blender and add the chorizo, gnocchi and mozzarella to taste. Cook for 2-4min until the cheese melts

• Serve the gnocchi on a bowl and top with the manchego crips

FAQS and Tips

• I love using good quality Italian tomatoes as they make a big difference on the flavour of the sauce. If you cannot find these try adding 1/2 tbsp of caster sugar to decrease the acidity of the sauce

• I cannot find manchego can I substitute it? Yes, other hard cheeses like parmesan or pecorino will work!
