1
Put a medium pan on a medium heat and add the oil. Soften the onion and garlic in it for 8-10 mins. Stir in the chorizo and cook for a further 5 mins.
2
Stir in the sugar and tomatoes, and season. Once simmering, tip in the gnocchi and let it cook for 8 mins until soft, stirring frequently. Set the grill to high.
3
Fold in most of the basil and ¾ of the mozzarella. Spoon the mixture into six ovenproof ramekins, or into one baking dish.
4
Top with the rest of the mozzarella and grill for 3 mins, until the cheese has melted and turned golden. Season, scatter over the leftover basil and serve with a green salad.
