Gnocchi alla Sorrentina Amsterdam at Mangia Pizza

Craving the ultimate gnocchi alla sorrentina Amsterdam? At Mangia Pizza, we honour this beloved Campanian classic in its purest form. Our gnocchi alla sorrentina Amsterdam starts with hand-rolled potato gnocchi, tossed in a slow-cooked San Marzano DOP tomato sauce, layered with generous amounts of fior di latte mozzarella, scattered with fresh basil, and finished in our high-heat oven until the cheese is perfectly molten and golden. Every gnocchi alla sorrentina Amsterdam we serve is a direct tribute to the kitchens of Sorrento – rich, comforting, and unapologetically Italian.

The dish takes its name from Sorrento, the clifftop town on the Amalfi Coast where this recipe was born. In Naples and the surrounding Campania region, gnocchi alla sorrentina is the definitive Sunday lunch – a dish that brings the whole family around the table. We bring that same warmth and tradition to Amsterdam, using only DOP and IGP-certified Italian ingredients, made fresh every day.

• Slow-cooked San Marzano DOP tomato sauce with garlic & extra virgin olive oil

The History Behind Gnocchi alla Sorrentina

Gnocchi alla sorrentina is one of southern Italy's most iconic pasta dishes, originating in the town of Sorrento on the Gulf of Naples. Traditionally baked in individual terracotta pots called pignatielli, the dish has been a staple of Campanian home cooking for generations. The combination of San Marzano tomatoes grown in the volcanic soil of Mount Vesuvius, locally produced mozzarella, and simple potato gnocchi is a masterclass in Italian cucina povera – humble ingredients elevated by quality and technique.

At Mangia Pizza Amsterdam, we stay true to this heritage. Our gnocchi alla sorrentina Amsterdam uses no shortcuts, no artificial flavours – just the same DOP-certified ingredients that have made this dish a timeless classic in Italy, now available right here in Amsterdam.
