Step 1

If using a head of broccoli, cut into florets. If you're using broccolini, or long stem broccoli, slice into equally thick pieces.

Step 2

Heat up some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli, and sauté for a few minutes until the broccoli has a slight sear and/or has softened slightly.

Step 3

Add gnocchi, thyme and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Sauté for a few more minutes until the gnocchi is warm on the surface.

Step 4

Add the creme fraiche, shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese to the frying pan. Stir to coat the gnocchi and broccoli evenly.

Step 5

Add lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Start with a smaller amount than what the recipe dictates, and add more if you want to.
