Ingredients:
– 200g semolina flour
– 80ml water
– A pinch of salt
– 200g yellow cherry tomatoes
– 200g red cherry tomatoes
– 3 garlic cloves, chopped
– A handful of fresh basil leaves
– 4 tablespoons of olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Firstly, cut the cherry tomatoes in half. Then, in a pan, heat two tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and cook for about 2 minutes until fragrant.

2. Add the yellow and red cherry tomatoes to the pan along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until the tomatoes start to break down and release their juices.

3. While the tomatoes are cooking, let’s prepare the gnocchetti. In a large bowl, mix the semolina flour with the water and a pinch of salt. Knead the mixture until it becomes a smooth dough.

4. Divide the dough into small pieces and roll them into thin logs. Cut each log into small pieces of about 1-2 cm. Press each piece of dough with a fork to obtain the characteristic gnocchetti shape.

5. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the gnocchetti and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they float to the surface of the water. Drain the gnocchetti and set aside.

6. After the tomatoes have cooked for 15 minutes, add the gnocchetti to the pan. Toss them gently with the tomato sauce until well coated.

7. Tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the top of the dish. Drizzle two tablespoons of olive oil and serve hot.
