Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a shallow, flameproof casserole dish and fry the onion over a medium heat for 8 mins. Stir in the garlic, fry for 30 secs, then add the tomato purée, chopped tomatoes and 200ml water. Bubble for 10 mins or until thickened and reduced.
- Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi to the pack instructions. Drain, reserving 100ml cooking water.
- Fold the feta, tuna, spinach, gnocchi and most of the reserved cooking water through the tomato sauce; season with black pepper. Add more cooking water to loosen if needed: the gnocchi will absorb some while baking. Scatter the bread over the dish followed by the cheese. Drizzle over 1 tbsp olive oil, then bake for 15-20 mins until crispy, golden and bubbling.
