Mediterranean-Flavored Gnocchi with Bok Choy or Alternative Greens
Cooked and Dyed: Gnocchi in Red, Green, and White Variants
Hamburg, Germany (dpa/tmn) - Indulge in a colorful Mediterranean-style gnocchi dish, featuring a base of fresh gnocchi, tomatoes, sheep's cheese, and Italian herbs. For a vibrant green touch, the meal is garnished with bok choy, a relative of Chinese cabbage. The dish's striking red and white combination is sure to pique the appetite, even in children.
However, if you prefer to substitute the bok choy, consider using spinach or Swiss chard, as suggested in the "Family Kitchen" guide of the Consumer Center NRW. Fret not, as the dish's visually appealing palette remains the highlight.
