Balsamic tofu gnocchi

Method

1. Cut any thick broccoli stalks in half lengthways, then cut each piece of broccoli into thirds. Put them in a heatproof bowl and cover with boiled water from the kettle. Set aside for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly while you prepare everything else.
2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat, then add the tofu and fry for about 8 minutes, turning every few minutes, until browned all over. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the balsamic, maple syrup, soy and garlic. Once the tofu is browned, use a slotted spoon to transfer it straight into the marinade and stir to coat.
3. Return the pan to the heat (adding a little extra oil if needed) and add the gnocchi. Fry for 3 minutes, then drain the broccoli and add to the pan with a good pinch of salt. Fry for another 3 minutes until lightly browned and tender. Add the tofu and its marinade to the pan and toss everything together. After a minute or so it should all be coated in sauce. Sprinkle over the chives and serve.
