Season potatoes generously with salt and pepper and toss gently with 3 tbsp of the dressing.

Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and add enough water to cover by about an inch. Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat, lower heat and simmer gently, about 12'. Drain and
plunge eggs into cold water. When cool remove from water and remove shells. Quarter eggs lengthwise and plce on a plate.

Place arugala and red onion in a mixing bowl and toss with 1/2 cup of the dressing. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if desired. Divide salad evenly and mound on 6 salad plates. Garnish each serving with potato wedges and egg quarters. Drizzles remaining dressing over egg wedges on each plate. Garnish with prosciutto.
