Preheat the oven to 220°C, fan 200°C, gas 7. Toss the gnocchi with 1½ tablespoons of oil and some seasoning. Spread out on a very large shallow baking tray (use two if necessary). Roast for 10 minutes until starting to turn golden

Meanwhile, chop the spring onions into chunks and place in a mixing bowl with 1 tablespoon of oil and the sausages. Mix to coat, then snip the tomatoes into small bunches and mix through gently.

Stir the gnocchi around (they should be starting to look golden) and mix in the sausages and the veg mixture. Return to the oven for 10 minutes.

Tip the California walnut pieces into the same bowl and add the paprika, sugar, ½ tablespoon of oil and seasoning; mix to coat. Scatter over the tray(s) of hash and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and return to the oven for 2 minutes until wilted.
