Almost like a version of bubble and squeak, this potato dish has come back into fashion in Germany in recent years. The potatoes can be combined with virtually any kind of flavourful greens, such as kale or dandelion, or a bunch of finely chopped aromatic herbs.

- Quarter or halve the potatoes depending on size. Bring to the boil in salted water and cook them until tender. Drain.
- Whisk the oil with the salt, vinegar and pepper. Cut the escarole into very fine strips and toss with the dressing.
- Crush the hot potatoes and stir in the butter. Season with salt and nutmeg. Fold in a portion of the escarole. Heap the potatoes in the middle of a large shallow serving platter, and arrange the rest of the endive in a circle around the potatoes. Serve at once.
