Ingredients
  

1 lb gnocchi (fresh or store-bought)

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon sugar (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

8 oz burrata cheese

Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the gnocchi: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.

    Prepare the sauce: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.

      Add the tomatoes: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream, dried oregano, and sugar (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

        Combine gnocchi and sauce: Add the drained gnocchi to the skillet, gently tossing to coat them in the creamy tomato sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

          Serve: Divide the creamy gnocchi between bowls. Tear the burrata into pieces and place them on top of the gnocchi. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil for garnish.

            Enjoy! Serve immediately and savor the deliciousness of this quick and creamy meal.
