Instructions
- 1 Open marinated mozzarella balls and measure out 1/4 cup of the oil.
- 2 Pour oil into a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Cook gnocchi in batches in the hot oil until golden and heated through. Divide gnocchi evenly amongst 4 gratin dishes.
- 3 Add garlic and red chili flakes to the oil in the same skillet. Cook until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in salt and sugar. Pour in tomatoes. Use a wooden spoon to break up and crush the tomatoes.
- 4 Bring sauce to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer tomatoes for 15 minutes.
- 5 Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- 6 Taste sauce and adjust seasonings if desired. Spoon tomato sauce over the gnocchi. Top each dish with 3 marinated mozzarella balls and set on a baking sheet.
- 7 Add baking sheet to oven and broil until mozzarella balls are melted and golden browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley or basil if desired and serve immediately.
