A good amount of freshly ground black peppercorns.3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing.3 mixed peppers, chopped into gnocchi-size pieces (don’t use green peppers).The result is crisp perfection like you wouldn’t believe.”ĬRISPY GNOCCHI - ON A STICK - WITH CHARRED PEPPERS & BASIL PESTO from The Green Barbecue by Rukmini Iyer (Square Peg, 2021) Forget about threading just plain old vegetables on a stick – here, you intersperse veg of your choice (I’ve done peppers here, but see the note below) on skewers with just-blanched gnocchi. So, I give you my proudest barbecue creation. “Could I write a book without featuring crispy gnocchi? Of course not. I loved the idea of Crispy Gnocchi! Here’s what Rukmini says about it: One of the things I enjoy about Rukmini’s books is that she mixes food from different traditions to come up with some really delicious recipes. The book has ideas from the simplest barbecue on the beach or park to outdoor feasts in your own garden, plus ideas for bad weather or if you don’t have space for outdoor cooking. With good company, perhaps a dog or two, or even just contemplatively cooking a dish for yourself, it’s incredibly satisfying to break cooking down into its simplest components – one heat source, and a bit of food.” “I’m not sure there’s anything nicer than cooking and eating outside. Rukmini’s approach to a barbecue is hard to beat: We thought it might be a good idea to showcase a couple of her recipes as part of our blog this week, since she has visited this part of Cornwall regularly for holidays with friends ( check out her Instagram) and we are so pleased to be running a joint promotion on Instagram.
