Method
 

Cook the Gnocchi
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to the packet instructions — they’re ready once they float to the surface. Drain and set aside.
Sauté the Garlic and Onion
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until soft and translucent, then add the garlic and sauté for a further minute until fragrant.
Make the Cream Sauce
  1. Pour in the cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the oregano, parsley, dill, salt, and pepper. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
Add Spinach and Gnocchi
  1. Add the cooked gnocchi and toss gently to coat in the sauce, then stir in the spinach leaves and cook until wilted, about 1–2 minutes.
Finish with Feta and Lemon
  1. Turn off the heat. Add the lemon zest and crumbled feta. Gently fold through, then serve immediately.
