Instructions

Season the prawns and roast them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 6 minutes.

Add the porcini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and basil, cooking until softened, about 8 minutes.

Stir in the chili flakes, fresh basil, oregano and balsamic vinegar for 3 minutes.

Cook the gnocchi separately according to package directions.

Let the prawns simmer gently for about 20 minutes so they stay tender and the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the gnocchi, garnished with fresh herbs.
