These little crispy dumplings are just the tastiest thing to gnoc up (sorry couldn't resist) in your campervan. Perfectly complimented with the sharpness of a red onion, the sweetness of a bell pepper and a little chilli to spice things up.

    Enjoyed this! I only used half an onion and would do so again, didn’t have half a red chili so subbed red pepper flakes, and omitted the parsley since it’s not my fave. I wouldn’t say the gnocchi got crispy exactly but they did get nicely brown / caramelized. Very easy and would be good with additonal veggies as well if more is on hand

    A bit to spicy for my taste! But good overall!

    Too onion-y definitely going to use less in future
