Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan over a high heat. Add the sausages and cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, to brown all over. Tip the sausages into a sieve over a bowl to catch any excess fat, then return to the pan.
  2. Reduce the heat slightly and add the pasta sauce. Add a good splash of water to the jar and swish out into the pan. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi in boiling, salted water for 2 minutes (freeze any left in the pack). Drain and stir into the sausage mixture, along with the Parmesan. Season with black pepper, divide between bowls and serve with the Parmesan shavings.
