Ravioli

These are common to all parts of Italy. They can be made with Plain (White) or Green Pasta and are much like tortellini. Make them square or round.

 

Ingredients:

 

White, Red or Green Pasta

Filling of choice

 

Instructions:

 

  1. Make the pasta - White, Green or Red - as directed in recipe for relevant pasta.

 

  1. Roll Pasta into a sheet.

 

  1. Dot with filling.

 

  1. Top with a second sheet.

 

Notes:

 

Ravioli makes a mouth-watering first course whether served steaming hot in a cooked tomato sauce or chilled in a thick salsa of strained and herbed fresh tomato pulp.

 

To make Ravioli, mark the rolled dough (which has not been allowed to rest after rolling) with a pastry wheel into 2½cm / 1 inch squares. Place the stuffing in the squares and top with the other strip of pasta. Cut around the squares with the wheel and place on a flat tray.

 

To make the ravioli in a shaped tray, roll the pasta in to strips a little larger than the tray, line the tray with pasta and place the filling in each of the square sections. Cover the whole with another strip and roll over the top with a rolling pin. The ravioli shapes will seal and the tray can be turned over to release the ravioli.
