Asian Pear And Drunken Goat Agnolotti Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Make the Dough

   In a bowl, combine the flour and make a well in the center. Add eggs and olive oil. Gradually mix until a dough forms. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic and let rest for 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Prepare the Filling

   In a bowl, mix together drunken goat cheese, diced Asian pears, thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

3. 3

   Roll Out the Dough

   On a floured surface, roll out the dough as thin as possible. Cut into squares or circles, about 3 inches wide.

4. 4

   Fill the Agnolotti

   Place a small amount of filling in the center of each dough square. Fold over and seal the edges tightly to form agnolotti. Repeat until all dough and filling are used.

5. 5

   Cook the Agnolotti

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add agnolotti and cook for about 4-5 minutes or until they float to the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon.

   Make the Sauce

   In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped preserved lemon and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in citrus oil and fresh herbs.
