#3 Crispy Gnocchi Salad: 5:36
500g gnocchi* (17.6 oz)
A pinch of salt
A drizzle of vegetable oil
For the dressing:
3-4 tbsp unsweetened plant-based yogurt
1 tbsp vegan mayo
½ tsp mustard
1-2 tsp white wine vinegar
Salt, pepper to taste
½ cucumber, diced
Optional: 1 red onion, finely chopped (I excluded this)
Optional: 1-2 tbsp minced fresh dill
2-3 tbsp minced fresh chives
→ Ideal for 2-3 servings
*Please note that the gnocchi I used were fresher and moister, not the very dry ones sold in vacuum packs. I haven’t yet tested the recipes with the latter. It is possible they may turn out super crunchy? Alternatively, consider adding a small splash of water to the baking sheet alongside the oil for these. Hope this suggestion helps.
