Step 1Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C) mark 7. Melt butter in a medium pan, add flour and thyme and cook on low heat, stirring, for 2min. Gradually stir in milk, to make a smooth sauce. Bring slowly to the boil, stirring, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in Gruyère and seasoning. Set aside.
Step 2Grease a 2 litre (3½ pint) serving dish. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, add gnocchi, return to the boil and simmer for 2min until bobbing on the surface and tender. Drain.
Step 3Mix gnocchi, sprouts and salmon in the serving dish. Pour over the cheese sauce and sprinkle over the Parmesan. Cook in oven for 25min, or until browned and bubbling. Serve with a crisp green salad.
