Cheat’s sausage and gnocchi bake

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Heat a splash of olive oil in a saucepan over a medium-high heat, and fry the sausages for 5 minutes until browned all over. Remove from the pan, add the onion wedges and cook over a medium-low heat until softened and beginning to caramelise.
2. Meanwhile, bring a pan of salted water to the boil and blanch the gnocchi for 2 minutes or until they rise to the surface, then drain well.
3. Pour the peperonata and canned tomatoes into a small ovenproof dish (about 1.2 litres) and season with salt and pepper. Stir through the sausages, onion and parsley. Top with the gnocchi and feta, pushing the gnocchi into the sauce. Bake for 15-20 minutes until piping hot and cooked through.
