Toast peppercorns in the Ninja Foodi ZEROSTICK 20cm Saucepan until they begin to ‘pop’ and become fragrant. Roughly crush in a pestle and mortar once cooled slightly and set to one side.
Step 2
Cook the gnocchi according to the pack instructions but omit salt from the water. Drain, reserving 200ml cooking water and leave to cool slightly.
Step 3
Melt the butter in the same pan on a low to medium heat, then pour in 100ml of the reserved cooking water. Whisk in the pecorino and half of the ground black pepper. Add the remaining reserved cooking water a little at a time until fully combined. Whisk often until the consistency of the sauce is like bechamel/white sauce. Taste and add more black pepper if you wish.
Step 4
Add the cooked gnocchi and gently stir to coat . Plate up as a main between 2 people or as a side between. Sprinkle over some green leaves or roughly chopped fresh herbs and enjoy.
