Adding a burst of tangy sweetness, sundried tomatoes add something special to this bake from the Anything You Can Cook, I Can Cook Vegan cookbook. These little pockets of intense flavor add a welcome contrast to the rich and savory chorizo sausage, creating a harmony of tastes that will leave your taste buds dancing.
What you need:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed or finely grated
6 sundried tomatoes, finely chopped
¾ cup vegan sausage, sliced into coins
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes
1¼ cups vegetable broth
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3 cups fresh gnocchi
½ cup vegan mozzarella
¼ cup fresh basil leaves, stems removed
What you do:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a large, ovenproof saucepan over medium heat and warm olive oil. Once hot, add onion and garlic. Sauté 3 minutes, but do not let brown.
- Add sundried tomatoes and sausage, and sauté 1 more minute. Add chopped tomatoes, broth, oregano, and gnocchi, and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, cover with lid, and let cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer to an oven to bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove lid and top with mozzarella. Return to oven without lid and bake 5 to 10 minutes or until cheese is golden brown and bubbling. Top with basil to serve.
