1
Prepare the Gnocchi
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potato gnocchi and cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
2
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the charred cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to blister. Add the sliced olives and cook for another minute.
3
Fry the Gnocchi
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the cooked gnocchi and fry until they are golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
4
Add Spinach and Season
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
5
Finish and Serve
Remove the skillet from heat, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves. Serve warm.
