Preheat your oven to 150C and bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil. Meanwhile, peel and chop the red onion and garlic, halve the cherry tomatoes, and finely chop the parsley.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Sauté the onion, cherry tomatoes, and garlic until the onions are translucent. Add the chopped tomatoes, reduce the heat, and simmer gently. Season with salt, pepper, and chilli flakes to taste.
Cook the gnocchi in the boiling water for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Drain once cooked.
Add cream to the tomato sauce and stir through the parsley. Stir the cooked gnocchi into the tomato-cream sauce, then transfer everything to a baking dish. Grate mozzarella over the top, then place the dish in the oven to melt the cheese.
Once the mozzarella is melted, remove the gnocchi from the oven and divide among serving plates. Grate parmesan over the gnocchi before serving.
Good dish, i would use less onion next time but enjoyed it
