FOOD TEAM’S TIP
Cover and chill the sauce up to 2 days ahead. On the day, simply add the gnocchi and cheese to the sauce and bake as in the recipe. If not serving vegetarians, add a handful of bacon lardons with the peppers and basil, if you like.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a heavy-based ovenproof casserole. Add 1 chopped red onion and 3 crushed garlic cloves, then cook over a medium heat for 6-8 minutes. Add 1 aubergine, cut into 1cm chunks, and cook for a further 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
