I was looking for a dinner recipe to cook for Valentine's day. That was the one for me. I would highly recommend for a date night :) Quick to cook, comfort food, perfect with red wine and healthy with the addition of the veggies. Choose good quality lean sausages and fresh gnocchi for the best result.
Ingredients
- 4 lean beef sausages
- 1 red wine pasta sauce
- 1 packet of fresh gnocchi
- 1 broccoli head
- 200 green beans
- 100 gm kale
- pinch fennel seeds and fresh rosemary
- pinch almond flakes
- 2 garlic gloves, finely chopped
- olive oil
- 1/2 cup red wine
Method
- Squeeze the sausage meat out of the skins, break the meat apart. Heat olive oil in a frying pan, add fennel seeds and rosemary. Add sausage meat. Cook until brown. Add broccoli florets, red wine and sauce. Stir to combine. Reduce heat and cook for about 5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced.
- Cook gnocchi in a boiling water for 2 minutes. When the gnocchi float up to the surface, they are ready. Drain and add to the pan, once the sauce has simmered down.
- To make the salad - cut off the bean stalks. Heat olive oil in the frying pan. Add green beans, kale, garlic, almond flakes and cook for 2 minutes. Serve with the sausage gnocchi.
