Ingredients
- 1 tbsp chipotle paste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lime, cut in half

Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chipotle paste, olive oil and the juice of one half of the lime to make a paste.
- Toss the gnocchi, peppers, onion and a generous seasoning of salt in the mixture until everything is well coated. Tip into the air fryer.
- Air-fry for 15–20 minutes at 200C, stirring every 5 minutes with a spatula to make sure none of the peppers are sticking to the bottom and everything cooks evenly.
- Serve topped with the avocado, soured cream and tomato salsa. Cut the remaining lime half into wedges and serve alongside.
