PROSCIUTTO RAVIOLI

Categories     Prosciutto     Boil

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15-ounce) container whole-milk ricotta cheese
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped
2 large egg yolks
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
48 square wonton wrappers
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
Freshly grated Pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Whisk the ricotta, spinach, prosciutto, egg yolks, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of the ricotta filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edge of the wrapper lightly with water. Fold the wrapper in half point to point, enclosing the filling completely and forming a triangle. Pinch the edges to seal. Transfer the ravioli to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers. (The ravioli can be prepared up to 2 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Working in batches, cook the ravioli until just tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer the ravioli to a large shallow bowl.
  • Melt the butter in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the oregano and stir for 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the oregano butter over the ravioli and toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with the Pecorino cheese and serve.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 ounces prosciutto, finely chopped
5 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
7 1/2 ounces ricotta cheese
1 egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
36 wonton skins

Steps:

  • Combine the prosciutto, spinach, ricotta, egg yolk, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Mix the cornstarch with a couple of tablespoons of cold water in a small dish.
  • Place six or so wonton skins on work surface. Keep remaining skins covered. Place a gently rounded teaspoonful of the filling in the center of the skin.
  • Dip your finger in the cornstarch mix (stir it up, as it will settle) and wet two edges of the skin. Fold over the other two edges to form a triangle. Try to keep the filling centered, as if it spreads to the edges, you won't be able to get a good seal.
  • Continue until all skins are used up. Depending on the exact size of your wonton skins, you may end up with more or fewer ravioli.
  • Heat a large pan of salted water to boiling. Reduce the heat so that the water is simmering and not at a full boil. Drop the ravioli in one by one. They will take no more than two or three minutes to cook. Don't crowd the pan, cook in batches. Remove with strainer and drain well.
  • Serve with your favorite pasta sauce. I like to use recipe #64635. I would not use a typical marinara. Garnish with parmesan cheese, if desired.
  • Note1: Delis often sell prosciutto ends for a fraction of what sliced prosciutto costs. That's what I buy to make this and other dishes calling for chopped prosciutto.
  • Note2: These freeze very well. Freeze in a single layer and then package in appropriate container. Do not thaw; they will take app. 3 to 4 minutes to cook.
  • Note3: These can also be used for a first course, three or four per serving.

Categories     Pasta

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15oz) container of whole milk ricotta cheese
1 (10oz) package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
4oz of thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped
2 large egg yolks
3/4 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
48 square wonton wrappers
1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons of dried oregano
freshly grated Pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Whisk the ricotta, spinach, prosciutto, egg yolks, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to blend Place 1 tablespoon of the ricotta filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edge of the wrapper lightly with water. Fold the wrapper in half point to point. Pinch the edges to seal. Transfer the ravioli to a baking sheet. (The ravioli can be prepared up to 2hrs ahead; cover and refrigerate)> Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Working in batches, cook the ravioli until just tender, stirring occasionally - about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer the ravioli to a large shallow bowl. Melt butter in a small heavy skillet over medium heat. Add oregano and stir for 1 minute. Pour the oregano butter over the ravioli and toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with Pecorino cheese and serve

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use the best prosciutto, cheese, and pasta that you can find. This will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcook the ravioli: Ravioli should be cooked until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked ravioli will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a light touch when mixing the ricotta cheese filling: Overmixing the filling will make it tough. Gently fold the ingredients together until they are just combined.
  • Season the filling to taste: Taste the filling before you add it to the ravioli. You may need to adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • Seal the ravioli tightly: Make sure that the edges of the ravioli are sealed tightly before you cook them. This will prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water: This will help to prevent the ravioli from sticking together.
  • Serve the ravioli immediately: Ravioli is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can top it with your favorite sauce, such as tomato sauce, pesto, or Alfredo sauce.
