This can be thrown together midweek for minimal cost but maximum flavour
Peel the butternut squash, cut in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds. Cut the squash into small cubes. Add the pieces to a bowl along with a tablespoon of vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Place the same pan back on the heat and add the squash, spreading it out into an even single layer in the pan. Cook on a medium heat for four to five minutes until caramelised, then turn and cook for another four minutes until caramelised on the other side. Add the vegetable stock, bring to a simmer, then lower the heat and cook until the liquid has reduced by half.
When the stock has reduced by half, stir in the butter and cook for a further two to three minutes until the liquid thickens slightly into a glaze. Stir in the blanched gnocchi and cook for one minute, coating well in the sauce, then remove the pan from the heat.

Lowry, who served as the lead negotiator for the Regional Independents Group, secured two super junior ministerial positions and two junior minister positions during talks with Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil. The controversy stems from the Moriarty Tribunal's findings, which investigated Lowry's dealings with prominent businessmen and payments made to politicians. The tribunal concluded that Lowry, when serving as communications minister, aided Denis O'Brien's company in obtaining Ireland's second mobile phone license and that O'Brien provided financial support and a loan to Lowry. Lowry defended his record during a press conference, stating that he enjoyed the confidence of his group and the Taoiseach and Tánaiste, unlike the media who he claimed had 'ranted' for the past month.
