Categories     Main course

Time 1h25m

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 11

350g minced beef
1 small onion, diced
1 stalks celery, diced
1 carrots, chopped
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano
¾ cup white wine
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons rosemary, finely chopped
1 teaspoon thyme, finely chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a glug of olive oil in a large frying pan. Add your diced onion, celery and carrots, and allow to sweat until soft and translucent.
  • Add your minced garlic, frying the mixture gently until aromatic. Remove the mixture from the pan.
  • Increase the heat of the pan, adding a small amount of oil. Once the oil begins to gently smoke, add your beef mince, leaving it to brown before proceeding to break the meat apart. Continue to fry until fully cooked, then deglaze the pan with white wine, ensuring to capture any deliciously meaty fond that has collected at the bottom of the pan.
  • Add your vegetable mixture back to the pan, then toss in the chopped rosemary, thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer until thickened, allowing your flavours to develop, forming a deliciously meaty and aromatic filling.
  • Remove your pan from the heat, before adding your grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Stir until combined, then leave the mixture to cool completely.
  • You're now ready to transform your mixture into delicious ravioli - to so do, simply follow our step-by-step guide to making fresh ravioli here.

BEEF RAVIOLI



Beef Ravioli image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h25m

Yield 42 ravioli

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
2 pounds ground beef (80/20 blend)
1 teaspoon minced fresh oregano
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup ricotta
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup semolina flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon olive oil or vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups egg wash (equal parts milk and eggs, beaten together)
2 cups egg wash (equal parts milk and eggs, beaten together)
Vegetable oil, for frying
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Serving suggestion: marinara sauce

Steps:

  • For the filling: Heat the oil for 1 minute in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring with a spoon to keep the beef from clumping. Then add the oregano, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste and cook for another 3 minutes. Transfer the filling to a colander and drain the excess oil, then transfer it to a bowl and stir in the ricotta. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the breading: In a food processor, pulse the panko breadcrumbs to half of their original size; this will allow them to bread the ravioli evenly. Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and mix them well with the Parmesan, parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • For the dough: Slowly sift the all-purpose flour, semolina and 1 teaspoon of the salt into a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil and 1 to 2 tablespoons of water. Form the sifted flour into a mound on a counter and pour half the egg mixture into the center of the mound. Start forming a dough with two fingers while supporting the mound of flour with the other hand, then add the remainder of the egg mixture once the original amount is absorbed. Continue kneading the dough by hand until all the liquid has been absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes, dusting the work surface with flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking. Once the dough is mixed well, roll it into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • To assemble and fry: Split the rested dough into 2 balls and roll out each ball on a floured work surface to the thickness of a dime (or run them through a pasta machine three times on thickness settings of 8, 5 and finally 2). Score one of the sheets of rolled dough with a ravioli pin and fill each scored pocket with 1 teaspoon of the filling. Brush the edges of the dough with egg wash, lay the second sheet of rolled pasta on top and then press and seal the individual ravioli with your fingers, ensuring that no air is trapped inside. Cut and portion out the individual pieces.
  • In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to 350 degrees F. Dredge the ravioli in the flour, followed by the egg wash, and finally the breading. Working in batches, fry the ravioli for 3 minutes, flipping them once during the process. Drain on paper towels, then serve with marinara sauce.

Don't let the idea of homemade ravioli scare you. It's way easier than it sounds when using wonton wrappers, and it's so worth the end result!! These can be boiled or baked as desired.

Provided by Bird

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 40m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ pound ground beef
¼ onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 egg
30 wonton wrappers
1 egg yolk, beaten

Steps:

  • Place the ground beef, onion, and garlic into a skillet over medium heat, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Cook the beef until browned, about 10 minutes, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain off excess fat.
  • Mix the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, egg, and ground beef mixture in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper lightly dusted with flour.
  • To make the ravioli, lay out 15 wonton wrappers on a lightly floured work surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of each wonton wrapper. Dip your index finger into the beaten egg yolk, and smear a light coating of yolk all around the edge of the wonton wrapper. Place an unfilled wrapper on top of the filling, and press the two wrappers lightly together. Pick up the ravioli gently in your hand, and pinch the edges together tightly, squeezing out all the air. Seal and crimp the edges with a fork. Place the filled ravioli onto the parchment paper. Use immediately or freeze.

  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs can add a pop of flavor and color to your ravioli dish. Try garnishing with basil, parsley, or chives.
