Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large non-stick frying pan & a small bowl

Roast the veg

  • Trim the green beans. Peel the onions and cut into 2cm wedges
  • Add the onion wedges to the tray and drizzle with 1 tsp oil. Season with salt and pepper and bake for 10 mins
  • After 10 mins, add the green beans to the tray and toss with the onion. Return to the oven for a further 10 mins, until soft and golden

Get frying

  • On a separate board, dice the chorizo into 1cm chunks
  • Heat the large non-stick frying pan on a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chorizo and fry for 7 mins, stirring frequently, until golden. Add the gnocchi and cook for a further 4-5 mins, tossing regularly, until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper, then remove the pan from the heat

Make the harissa yoghurt

  • Thinly slice the chives. Halve the tomatoes
  • In the small bowl, mix together the harissa, yoghurt and half the chives. Season with salt and pepper. Add a splash of water to get it to a drizzling consistency

Toss & plate up

  • Toss the tomatoes, maple & mustard dressing and roasted veg though the gnocchi and chorizo pan, then gently toss with the salad leaves
  • Share the gnocchi salad between bowls and drizzle over the harissa yoghurt. Sprinkle over the remaining chives
