Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil
1 bunch sage leaves
1 tbsp vegan butter
450 g gnocchi
1 small onion finely diced
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tbsp tomato puree
150 g pumpkin puree
150 ml vegetable stock
4 tbsp vegan cream

Instructions

In a flat bottomed pan, heat the olive oil until glistening.
Add 8 sage leaves to the pan and cook for 1 minute until crisp. Remove them from the oil and place on to a piece of kitchen roll to absorb the oil.
Add a tbsp of butter to the oil and pan fry the gnocchi for 2 - 3 minutes or until they are crisp and golden on the outside.
Remove the gnocchi from the pan and place to one side.
Add the diced onion to the pan and fry for 8 - 10 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for a further 2 minutes.
Add the tomato puree and pumpkin puree to the pan and cook out for another 2 minutes.
Pour in the vegetable stock and 4 sage leaves cut into ribbons. Whisk until a smooth sauce has formed.
Bring the sauce to a simmer before adding in the gnocchi and vegan cream.
Season and serve when piping hot.
Top with the crispy sage leaves, crumbled or whole.
