Ingredients
500 g Potato gnocchi
300 g Sugar snap peas, halved lengthways
3/4 cup (185 ml) Thickened cream
1 Lemon, zested and juiced
185 g Hot smoked salmon fillets, skin removed and flaked
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Cook the gnocchi in a large saucepan of boiling water for 5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
 - Add the sugar snap peas and cook for 1 minute until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
 - Return the pan to medium heat, add the cream and lemon juice, and bring to a gentle boil for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
 - Remove from the heat and stir in the cooked gnocchi, sugar snap peas, and flaked salmon.
 - Toss gently until coated in the sauce, keeping the salmon in large flakes.
 - Season with salt and pepper, divide among bowls, and sprinkle with lemon zest before serving.
 
Notes
Swap hot smoked salmon for grilled or pan-seared salmon fillets.
Use sautéed mushrooms or asparagus for a vegetarian version.
Stir in a spoonful of cream cheese for extra richness.
Add baby spinach, peas, or capers for more texture and brightness.
Use fresh or frozen gnocchi — both work well.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently with a splash of cream.
Avoid boiling the sauce too hard after adding lemon juice to prevent curdling.
