BYO Ingredients & Utensils

2 tsp olive oil
large saucepan
medium deep frypan

Instructions

1. Cook gnocchi

Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the gnocchi (make sure the water is at a rapid boil). Stir to separate the gnocchi, then return to the boil and cook for 3 mins. Reserve 125ml (½ cup) cooking water, then drain the gnocchi. Crumble 1 stock cube* into the reserved cooking water and stir to dissolve. Drain.

2. Prep ingredients

Meanwhile, finely chop the onion. Crush or finely chop 2 garlic cloves. Reserve a few small sprigs, then finely chop the dill, discarding the stems.

3. Make sauce

Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a large deep frypan over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, for 3 mins or until softened. Add the stock and three-quarters of the cream* and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-7 mins until slightly reduced.

4. Add spinach and dill

Add the spinach and dill (see Make it yours) to the creamy sauce and stir until the spinach is wilted. Add the gnocchi and gently toss to combine and warm through. Remove the pan from the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper.

5. Serve up

Divide the creamy gnocchi among bowls. Crumble over the feta, scatter over the reserved dill sprigs and enjoy!

6. Make it yours

Dill is known for its fresh aniseed flavour, but we know it's not for everyone. No worries! Simply leave it out of the pasta and serve at the table for those who do like it.
