INGREDIENTS:

Stuffing

  • 1 fennel bulb (around 400gr) with stalks and leaves, diced
  • 50 g butter
  • 100 gr Pecorino rape cheese (Savello)
  • 400 gr fresh ricotta cheese (Saputo Fiorella)
  • 2 eggs
  • Salt and pepper
  • A recipe for fresh pasta

Sauce

  • 200 gr of butter
  • 50gr pecorino grated cheese
  • 1/2 cup pasta water
  • Pepper

PREPARATION:

  1. Heat the butter in a 28cm pan. Sauté the diced fennel for about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. The mixture must be at room temperature before putting in the food processor.
  2. Using the food processor, pulse the fennel. You can also do this with a mezzaluna.
  3. Pour the fennel into a bowl and add the ricotta, eggs and pecorino cheese. Mix well and set aside.
  4. It’s time to get out your pasta machine and ravioli mold.
  5. Refer to the fresh pasta recipe.
  6. To make ravioli, stop at number 2 on the Imperia pasta machine.
  7. Put some semolina on one side of the dough sheet that will go on the side of the ravioli mold.
  8. Using the mold, make small hollows and fill with the filling. Put a sheet of pasta and press with the roller. This will seal and cut the ravioli. Remove the excess pasta from around the mold.
  9. Place ravioli on a cookie sheet covered with a dish towel. Sprinkle with a little semolina. You should have 6 dozen ravioli.
  10. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over low heat
  11. Bring 8 liters of water to a boil and add salt. Add the ravioli and cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute once the water is boiling. Drain (be sure to save some of the cooking water)
  12. Put the ravioli in the butter. Mix gently
  13. Add Pecorino cheese and pepper. Mix gently and add cooking water if necessary.
  14. Adjust seasoning.

Enjoy!

*You can freeze the ravioli

Place them side by side on a cookie sheet covered with a dish towel. Put in the freezer for about 1 hour. Then place them in a Ziplock bag and put in the freezer.

To cook, always freeze in boiling water.
