Potato Gnocchi with Tinned Tomato & Basil Sauce

Serving Size : 4-6

 

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 small onion- finely diced

  • 1 celery stalk – sliced

  • 2 carrots – finely diced

  • 2 x 425 gram tins chopped tomatoes or tomato passata

  • ½ teaspoon sugar

  • ½ cup chopped basil

  • Parmesan cheese – to serve

Method

  1. Prepare the vegetables

  2. Heat the oil in a large fry pan and add the onion, carrot and celery
