   Pan-fry the gnocchi in a non-stick pan for 6-8 minutes until golden and crisp.

   Warm the black beans in a pan with a splash of water and the seasoning, lightly crushing a few to thicken.

   Gently fry the garlic in the olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10-12 minutes until rich. Tear in the basil at the end.

   Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peppers and aubergine for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

6. 6

   Build the plate: gnocchi first, then the veg and black bean, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.
