Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Wash and oil the skins of 5 russet potatoes, then poke holes in them.

Place the potatoes in the oven and bake for 50 minutes until done.

Let the potatoes cool slightly, then use a ricer to rice the potatoes into a bowl.

In a food processor, blend fresh peas until they are a nice pea powder.

Combine the riced potatoes and the blended peas in a mixing bowl and fold them together.

Add sea salt, Parmesan cheese, and 1 egg to the mixture and mix well.

Gradually add all-purpose flour to the mixture until a malleable dough forms, being careful not to overwork it.

Dust the work surface with flour and divide the dough into three portions.

Roll each portion into a snake shape, about 1.5 inches thick, using even pressure.

Cut the rolled dough into 1.5-inch dumplings and press with a thumb to create grooves.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and gently drop the dumplings in, ensuring they have room to float.

Cook the dumplings for about 2.5 to 3 minutes until they float to the top, then let them cook for an additional 30-45 seconds.

Remove the dumplings from the water once cooked.

In a non-stick ceramic pan, heat some butter until it starts to brown.

Add the cooked dumplings to the pan and turn them for even browning.

Add fresh peas and spinach to the pan, heating the peas through and wilting the spinach without overcooking it.

Prepare a spring pea pesto to serve with the dumplings.

Plate the dumplings with the pesto, wilted spinach, and sautéed peas.
