1. Finely chop the red onion and garlic, and halve the cherry tomatoes.
2. Saute the red onion in olive oil until translucent. Add the garlic and stir briefly until fragrant.
3. Add the cherry tomatoes and let them soften. Pour in the passata, add dried basil, salt, and black pepper, and simmer gently until the sauce thickens.

5. Add the gnocchi and olives to the tomato sauce and toss gently to combine.
6. Serve with torn mozzarella and grated parmesan.

✨ Pink tip

Add the mozzarella just before serving so it stays soft and creamy. Season the sauce lightly with salt — the olives and parmesan will add more saltiness.
