Cheese Filled Caramelle Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Make the Caramelle Filling

   In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan, egg yolk, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.

2. 2

   Fill the Pasta

   Cut the fresh pasta sheets into squares about 10cm x 10cm. Place a teaspoon of the filling in the center of each square. Fold the pasta over to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal. Then, twist the two pointed ends together to form a caramelle shape.

3. 3

   Cook the Caramelle

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Gently add the caramelle and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they float to the top. Remove and drain.

4. 4

   Prepare the Marsala Mushroom Sauce

   In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and sauté until translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are browned and tender.

5. 5

   Pour in the Marsala wine and let it simmer until reduced by half. Stir in the heavy cream and thyme, season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Combine and Serve

   Gently toss the cooked caramelle in the Marsala mushroom sauce. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan if desired.
