Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 portion recipe.

1.

Boil a kettle

Chop the leek[s] in half lengthways, then wash to remove any grit from between the leaves

Top, tail and slice finely

Chop the dill and basil finely, including the stalks

Step 1
2.

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the sliced leeks to the pan and cook for 3-4 min or until softened

Step 2
3.

Heat a separate large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the gnocchi and cook for 8-10 min or until beginning to crisp

Tip: Don't stir too often as this will prevent the gnocchi from crisping!

Step 3
4.

Meanwhile, wash the spinach, then add it to a colander and pour boiled water all over it so that it starts to wilt

Rinse the wilted spinach under the cold tap until it's cool

Once cool, squeeze the water out of the spinach as much as you can then chop it roughly

Step 4
5.

Once the leek has softened, add the wilted spinach to the pan and cook for 1-2 min

Roll the lemon[s] with your hand on a hard surface (to release more juice) and cut into quarters

Combine the juice of 1/4 [1/2] lemon, 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your lemon dressing

Step 5
6.

Squeeze the juice of 1/4 [1/2] lemon into the pan and add most of the chopped dill and basil (save some for garnish!)

Season with a crack of black pepper and give everything a good mix up

Step 6
7.

Crumble the feta into the pan and cook for 1-2 min or until the cheese starts to melt into the mixture

Transfer the crispy gnocchi to the pan and stir everything together – this is your spanakopita-style gnocchi

Step 7
8.

Serve the spanakopita-style gnocchi with the rocket to the side

Drizzle over the lemon dressing and season with a crack of black pepper

Garnish with the reserved chopped herbs and lemon wedges

Enjoy!
