However, taking some time to make Miguel Barclay’s recipe for homemade cauliflower gnocchi will be well worth your while – and your body will thank you for it too. Each portion will cost you just £1, making it a great option if you’re trying to stick to a budget. Here’s how to make it… Cauliflower gnocchi Serves 2
The cauliflower gnocchi comes in at under 500 cals per portion
Ingredients ½ cauliflower, broken into florets 2 tbsp plain flour, plus extra if needed 1 egg A few sage leaves Small handful of grated parmesan Oil (any) Salt and pepper Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4. Scatter the cauliflower florets on to a baking sheet, then drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a bowl, mash with a fork and mix in the flour and the egg. Very, very lightly knead the mixture on a worktop (don’t press too hard – keep it fluffy) and shape into a sausage shape. If the mixture is too dry, add a splash of water. If it is too wet, add a sprinkle of flour. Chop the sausage into 2cm sections. Pan-fry the gnocchi in a splash of oil over a medium/high heat for a few minutes, adding the sage leaves to the pan so they crisp up slightly. Serve sprinkled with grated parmesan
