OK well I just whacked this together;
Finely chop some veg, I used peppers, courgettes, onion and mushroom and gently fry in a pan, with fry light
Meanwhile boil some water and chuck the Gnocchi in, it only takes about 1minute so keep and eye on them so they doesn't go sticky. They're cooked once they are floating on the top of the water.
Drain the gnocchi and add to the veg, reduced the heat and cook for about 1minute until the gnocchi is just a little brown.
In a bowl, mix together some VFF fromage frais with a tea spoon of ketchup and 1tbsp of tomato puree, a splash of balsamic vinegar and a drizzle of worcestershire sauce.
Whack it in the frying pan to heat the sauce through. This wont take long (30sec - 1minute) and leave it too long it'll currdle.
Sprinkle some cheese over the top
and serve. (I just put the burgers in my George Forman at the very start)

It's not unfortuanely, but a 500g bag is 7.5syns or 1.5syns per 100g - well worth it in my opinion!

Slow but sure....
Squiddie, love you gnocchi recipe - where do you buy your gnocchi please? Or what make is it?
I love quorn burgers, they are very palatable and tasty for only ½ syn each, and while OH is biting into a 'proper' ¼lb'er burger, I feel 'saintly' and happy with my Quorn burger.

Thanks
Cooked the chicken or quorn until its browned. Then cooked off some onions with garlic (tsp of lazy garlic), added a good tablespoon or so of medium Curry powder. Added the mushy peas and a tin of chopped tomatos. Thats it! Let it simmer for 20 mins and gives you enough time to make the rice.
Taste it as it goes though so you know if you need to add more curry powder or even a little bit of sweetener. Tastes like an authentic curry! Although I would love to try and make a beef and mushroom curry with it. Plus you can blitz the toms and peas but I like the texture.
We should get this thread made into a sticky!!
