Pea, Mint and Goat's Cheese Ravioli
This recipe was born from a rather empty fridge and an obsession with my new $300 pasta accessory for my Kitchen Aid. You can either use pre-made lasagne sheets or make your own pasta with my recipe that you can find here.
Ingredients
- 300g pasta dough rolled into flat lasagne sheets
- 250g marinated goat's cheese
- 1 tbs finely chopped mint
- 1 cup finely chopped spinach
- 1/2 cup peas
- Zest of two lemons
- 4 tbs finely chopped mint
- 4tbs pine nuts
- 125g unsalted butter
- 1 egg
Method
- To make the filling, combine the spinach, goat's cheese, half the mint, half the lemon zest and the peas in a bowl. Season well and set aside. Place a large pot of water on the stove to boil.
- Cut the pasta dough into rounds using a glass or a ramekin as a guide. Whisk the egg in a small bowl to use as egg wash. Use a pastry brush around the edges of a circle of pasta. Spoon a heaped teaspoon of filling in the middle and place another circle of pasta on top. Press the edges down well. Repeat until you've used up all the pasta and filling.
- When the water has boiled, add a large pinch of salt followed by the pasta. While the pasta cooks, melt the butter in a pan with the remaining lemon zest and pine nuts until both the butter and the pine nuts are golden brown.
- To serve, use a slotted spoon to scoop the pasta into bowls. Top with the burnt butter sauce and a sprinkling of mint.
