• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (170°F), and potatoes are light golden brown. Sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Roll the lemon and cut in half lengthwise. Slice one half into quarters and set the other half aside for baking and basting. Cut onion into 4 pieces; slice one piece and sprinkle on the prepared baking sheet. Set remaining onion pieces aside.
• Mix garlic salt, sage, turmeric, basil, rosemary, and pepper together until well combined; divide evenly into 2 bowls.
• Rinse chicken in cold water and dry off. Trim and discard excess fat and separate skin from meat. Stuff inside of the chicken with arugula, 4 lemon slices, 3 onion pieces, and garlic cloves. Tie the legs together with twine. Spread 2 tablespoons ghee underneath the skin and another 2 tablespoons ghee on top of the skin, all over the chicken.
• Add 2 tablespoon ghee and butter to one bowl of spices. Microwave for 45 seconds. Stir and spread underneath the skin. Microwave remaining 1 tablespoon ghee and brush on top of skin. Sprinkle remaining seasoning all over chicken and pat into the skin; do not rub. Lightly squeeze some of the remaining lemon half on top of chicken and place chicken, breast-side up, on the onion slices on the baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 30 minutes, basting with juices and remaining lemon juice every 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing, continuing to baste.

Steps:

• 3 lbs large Idaho potatoes, a scant 2/3 cup (not quite 2/3 cup) of pasta flour, 2 eggs,3/4 to 1 cup of soft blue cheese,3 tbsp chopped mixed herbs (chervil, parsley, chives, basil),Salt and pepper,olive oil, to drizzle and fry.
• 1 tbsp butter Bake the potatoes in the oven until the skin is crisp on the outside and the potato is soft and fluffy in the middle. Scoop out the flesh then pass through a mouli until completely smooth and there are no lumps (a food mill would also work for this).
• Lay the potatoes out on the work surface and dust with flour. Mix together.
• Make a well in the middle of the potato and flour mix. Beat the eggs and cheese together and pour into the well. Gradually fold together the potato and flour mix into the wet ingredients then add the herbs and seasoning to taste.
• Scoop the mixture into a bowl and cool until firm. Shape the mixture into long sausages, about 1.5cm thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 2-3 cm lengths with the back of a knife so the ends are blunted a little.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the gnocchi. As soon as they float to the surface, give them another 30 seconds then fish out with a slotted spoon into a bowl of ice-cold water. Repeat with the rest. Drain then dry completely with kitchen paper or in a clean tea towel. Toss in a little olive oil.
• Heat some oil and the butter in a frying pan and brown the blanched gnocchi for a few minutes, turning them, until nicely caramelized all over.
