The recipe is very quick, since I used bought gnocchi (to make your own click here). Pick some onion weeds, remove the bulbs, wash them and chop them finely. Keep some flowers aside for decoration (and to eat, make sure they don't have the seeds inside yet, these are quite hard!). Wash the asparagus, chop off the very ends and then cut the stalks into bite size pieces. Keep the spears (tips) asides. Gently fry the onion weed bulbs and asparagus stalks with a little olive oil, then add a little vegetable stock, just enough to cover them, and cook until the liquid has reduced to half. Add the asparagus tips and cook for 5 more minutes. Cook the gnocchi, when they are ready lift them our with a slotted spoon and place in the pot with the asparagus. Add a knob of butter and stir well. Dish and sprinkle with onion weed flowers.
And now a few images from my garden, and a couple of flowers composition for my Pinterest Board!

L'eleganza e la raffinatezza di quel piattino, che pare un piccolo gustoso giardino, mi ha rincuorata. Lontana da tempo ormai dal pc.. avevo proprio bisogno di una carezza di colore e primavera, per sorridere. Grazie, auguri per un anno meraviglioso dolce Ale! Sempre nel mio cuore.
