Directions

115 min.
1. Step

Preheat your oven to 200 degrees C (400 degrees F) and lightly grease a large casserole dish.

2. Step

Cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they are just tender. Once cooked, drain and set aside.

3. Step

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and cook until they start to soften.

4. Step

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Allow it to simmer for about 10 minutes.

5. Step

Add the cooked gnocchi and fresh chopped basil to the sauce, then toss until the gnocchi are evenly coated in the sauce.

6. Step

Transfer half of the gnocchi and sauce mixture into the prepared casserole dish.

7. Step

Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese evenly over the gnocchi.

8. Step

Repeat with the remaining gnocchi and sauce, and sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the top.

9. Step

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and slightly golden around the edges.

10. Step

Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves.
