Gnocchi with Tomato-Cheese Sauce
Pane-Bistecca
I often have refrigerated gnocchi at home so that I can throw something together quickly when I’m in a hurry. This gnocchi with tomato and cheese sauce is such a quick recipe! Unfortunately, it’s not that easy to find gnocchi here in Manila, sometimes they’re available, sometimes not for ages, so I often bring them back from Hong Kong when I’m there.
I simply cooked the gnocchi in the sauce, so I didn’t have to boil them separately in salted water. That saves a lot!

Step 2
Add the gnocchi and mix well, adding a little water to prevent the dried gnocchi from becoming hard! Simmer for approx. 15 minutes, making sure that the sauce is always runny enough. You can test with a fork to see if the gnocchi are soft.
