Serves 4

1 400g pack of ready made gnocchi

2tbsp oil

4 eggs

4tbsp pesto (shop bought is fine )

Cook the gnocchi according to packet instructions and drain on a parchment lined piece of paper.

Keep the pot of hot water for cooking the eggs in later.

Heat a pan with the oil and fry the gnocchi for a few minutes each side until golden brown. Keep warm in a low oven while you get the eggs ready.

Poach the eggs (2 at a time probably best) in the gnocchi water . They will keep warm in the oven while you do the other 2.

Serve a portion of gnocchi with a spoon of pesto swirled through, place a poached egg on top and serve with some broccoli.
