Pasta Dough

Method

Pasta Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the eggs and olive oil. Gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs using a fork until a rough dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped spinach, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well combined and set aside.

Pasta Assembly

  1. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    After resting, divide the dough into four pieces. Roll out one piece on a floured surface until thin. Use a pasta machine if available for even thickness.

  2. 5

    Cut and Fill the Pasta

    Cut the rolled-out dough into squares or circles. Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of each piece. Fold the pasta over and seal the edges with your fingers or a fork.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper, cooking until the sauce thickens slightly.

Cooking and Serving

  1. 7

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the filled pasta for about 3-4 minutes or until they float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Plate the pasta and drizzle with the garlic cream sauce. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and additional grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
