Preparation steps

1.

Rinse potatoes and cook for about 30 minutes in a large pot with a steamer.

2.

Rinse herbs, shake dry, pluck leaves from stem and puree in a blender with oil.

3.

Peel potatoes, press through a ricer and let cool slightly. Mix potatoes in a bowl with egg and herb oil mixture and with a little flour and season with salt and nutmeg. Knead into a smooth dough. If necessary use a little more or less flour so that the dough does not stick to the hands and is easily malleable. This on a floured work surface roll dough into finger-thick logs and cut into approximately 1/2 inch pieces. Roll pieces over a fork back, cover with a tea towel, and let rest about 10 minutes. Then drop gnocchi pieces into a pot of boiling salted water and let cook for 3-5 minutes. The gnocchi is cooked when they float to the surface.

4.

Rinse arugula, trim, shake dry and arrange on plates.

5.

Melt butter in a hot pan. Lift gnocchi from the pot with a skimmer, add to the pan, mix well and lightly season with salt and pepper. Place gnocchi on arugula.

6.

Serve with Parmesan.
