Preparation

Crispy Gnocchi

Preheat the oven to 450°F and place the rack in the centre. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, toss the gnocchi with the pancetta, oil and salt. Arrange on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and make space for the asparagus. Bake for a further 10 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to grill and bake for a further 2–3 minutes, or until the gnocchi are golden brown.
