Baked Gnocchi with Crispy Ham Hock and Peas
Introduction from Rukmini Iyer
What’s better than baked gnocchi? Baked gnocchi with crispy ham hock on top. This simple family-friendly dinner is perfect for a quick, easy weeknight meal: all the major food groups in one tin.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C fan/200°C/gas 6. Put the gnocchi into a large bowl and pour over a kettleful of boiling water. Let it stand for 2 minutes, then drain well and tip the gnocchi into a roasting tin along with the peas, crème fraîche, mustard, salt (if using) and freshly ground black pepper.
Mix everything well in the tin, then scatter the shredded ham hock evenly all over. Grind over a little more black pepper, then transfer to the oven and bake for 25 minutes, until the ham is nicely crisped.
Squeeze over the lemon juice, scatter over the flat-leaf parsley and serve hot.
