• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add gnocchi and fry, tossing occasionally, until golden, 6-8 minutes. Season. • Add trimmed green beans to the pan with gnocchi, and cook, tossing, until tender, 3-4 minutes.

TIP: Add more olive oil if the gnocchi sticks to the pan. TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook in batches for the best results!
