Ravioli Dough

Method

Ravioli Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and crack the eggs into it. Add the olive oil. Using a fork, beat the eggs slowly incorporating the flour from the edges of the well until fully combined. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Ricotta Filling Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, egg yolk, chopped basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

Pomodoro Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Pomodoro Sauce

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add canned crushed tomatoes, chopped basil, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Ravioli Assembly and Cooking

  1. 4

    Roll out Dough and Fill

    After the dough has rested, divide it into four pieces. Roll out each piece into a thin sheet using a pasta machine or a rolling pin. Place small mounds of the ricotta filling on one sheet of dough, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Brush the edges with water, then place another sheet of dough on top. Press down around the filling to seal, and cut out individual ravioli using a knife or a ravioli cutter.

  2. 5

    Cook the Ravioli

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Gently add the ravioli, cooking for 3-4 minutes or until they float to the top and are al dente. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Toss the cooked ravioli in the pomodoro sauce. Serve hot, garnished with additional grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves to taste.
