It is not able to return string if you are using eruby.
(This is not due to Kwartz nor mkmethod script.)
You can do it only with ERB.

Compile:
  ====================
  bash$ ./mkmethod -p hoge.plogic -M Hoge -l erb hoge.html > hoge.rb
  ====================

Main program:
  --------------------
  args = { :user => 'World', :list => ['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc] }
  require 'hoge'
  str = Hoge.expand_hoge(args)
  --------------------
