Ravioli Butternut Squash
Ravioli Butternut Squash
ingredients
Pasta dough 300 g
Butternut squash 1 small
Garlic 1 Clove, (sliced)
Mascarpone cheese 100 g
Parmesan cheese 75 g, freshly and grated
Marjoram 0,5 g
Nutmeg 1/4, grated
Sage 1 bunch
Butter 125 g, unsalted
Preparation
To make the filling for the ravioli peel and remove the
seeds from the butternut squash, cut into small pieces and boil in salted water
like you would a potato. Remove from the water and place into a collinder to
cool down. Take half of the butter and fry the garlic with it until the garlic
is soft.
Add the marjoram and the cooked butternut squash; using a
wooden spoon mash the butternut squash and cook for about 10 minutes or until
the mixture appears quite dry. Add the mascarpone, seasoning and the grated
nutmeg. Leave to cool.
Roll out your fresh pasta as fine as your pasta machine will
let you, make sure that the size of the fresh pasta sheet is no less than 12cm
width and no more than 60 cm length. If the pasta is too long you may find that
it will dry out by the time you get to it! Place a good heaped teaspoon of
filling leaving a 3 cm gap between each portion also leaving enough pasta free
to fold over.
Using a pastry brush and water, brush in between each
portion of filling, fold over and using your two little fingers push down
between each ravioli. Seal all the edges and try to ensure that there is no
trapped air inside as the ravioli will explode when they got cooked. In a large
pan of salted boiling water add the ravioli and cook for about 3-5 minutes. In
a frying pan melt the remaining butter and chop up the sage roughly and add to
the butter.
Drain the ravioli and toss together with the butter and
sage. Serve in bowls with black pepper and freshly grated parmesan.
