Coles Finest Potato Gnocchi with Sorrentina Sauce: everything you need to know
Move over Tuscan, Sorrentina is here.
For a while now at taste, Australia’s been obsessed with all things Tuscan – from our ever-popular creamy garlic prawns to this salmon and risoni tray bake.
But we’re predicting that Sorrentina – a rich tomato sauce flavoured with garlic, basil and mozzarella – will be the next flavour hit you’ll see everywhere.
It’s the star of the Coles Finest Potato Gnocchi with Sorrentina Sauce, a light and fluffy gnocchi with a delicious ready-to-serve sauce.
Recipes and video content creator Stella Morelli tried it out, describing it as a “luxurious Italian-style pasta” that’s “on the table in minutes”.
It’s the newest iteration of Coles’ popular self-saucing gnocchi range, which includes THAT TikTok-viral Cacio e Cacio e Pepe version.
