Rakott kelkaposzta

I initially shared this recipe almost 3 years ago. As my diet changed slightly, I thought it would be nice to refresh the post and be more in line with my views. I made this dish last week, as my husband said he fancies it. This is a vegan take on the Hungarian Rakott kelkaposzta,

I made last weekend Citroenmelisse Gnocchi and they were amazing. I got Citroenmelisse, also known as lemon balm, from a garden centre and now I’m growing it in the window sill in the kitchen. Because it has a lovely lemony taste I thought I will use it in a very simple recipe, with gnocchi. The
