Method

1

Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Meanwhile, mince the garlic and dice the chilli. Chop up your mint and basil. Heat a glug of oil in a large frying pan and add the chilli, half the garlic, and breadcrumbs. Keep them moving and let them turn a lovely golden brown colour before setting aside on kitchen paper to soak up excess oil.

2

Meanwhile, dice the shallot as finely as possible. Trim the asparagus tips off (leave them whole) and cut the stalks into 1-2cm rounds.

3

Heat a splash of oil in a large frying pan and fry the shallot and asparagus with a pinch of salt for 5 mins, then add the other half of the minced garlic and cook for 1 min.

4

Tip the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook following pack instructions.

5

Pour the white wine into the pan with the asparagus. Let it bubble for a moment, then stir through the nutritional yeast. Add the drained gnocchi along with some gnocchi cooking water and stir well. Squeeze in the lemon, stirring constantly, and then serve on a plate topped with chopped mint, chopped basil, breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
