Air fryer Roasted Tomato and Red Pepper Gnocchi
3-4
35 minutes
This quick and easy air fryer roasted red pepper and plum tomato gnocchi is ready in under 30 minutes and delivers incredible flavour with minimal effort. The vibrant homemade sauce is created by roasting fresh vegetables in our Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil, which enhances their sweetness and adds depth thanks to its high smoke point and naturally nutty taste.
Once blended, the rich tomato and red pepper sauce is poured over crispy fried or air‑fried gnocchi and finished with generous Parmesan shavings.
