Ingredients

  • 14 oz (400 g) potato gnocchi
  • 3.5 oz (100 g) bacon
  • 1/4 cup (60 g) basil pesto

How to make it, step by step

  1. In a skillet with a little oil, brown the diced bacon.
  2. Add the gnocchi to the same skillet and let them toast a little.
  3. Pour in a glass of water, not quite covering the gnocchi, and stir from time to time until it evaporates. Be careful not to add too much water or the gnocchi will fall apart; they should end up with a slightly crispy crust.
  4. With the skillet already off the heat, stir in the pesto sauce and mix well.
