Homemade Creamy Mushroom Ravioli, a homemade egg pasta recipe filled with a creamy mushroom filling and topped with lots of parmesan and black pepper.
Ingredients
PASTA
- 170g plain flour
- 2 eggs
- pinch of salt
MUSHROOM FILLING
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 large porcini mushroom
- 100g chopped white mushrooms
- Small onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon Parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon cream
METHOD
EGG PASTA
- On a flat surface place four, make a well in the middle and add the eggs, with a fork slowly mix together to form a smooth dough.
- Cover and let rest one hour.
- Cut dough into 3-4 parts, roll out slightly and roll through machine until thin (you will want to see your hand underneath the dough). Sprinkle dough with flour so it doesn’t stick.
- Cut dough into even squares using a pastry crimper (I made them about 2 x 2 inches). Then fill with approximately 1 heaping teaspoon full of mushroom filling.
- Place another square on top and close the sides with the pastry crimper. Make sure to go around the whole ravioli with the crimper, you don’t want them to open.
- In salted boiling water cook the ravioli for approximately 5 minutes.
- Drain.
MUSHROOM FILLING
- In a medium pan add butter, chopped mushrooms, chopped onion and garlic, cook until golden stirring occasionally. Then add oregano, parsley and cook 20 seconds.
- Remove 3 /4 of the mixture and blend until creamy, then place back in pan and mix with remaining 1/4 mixture. Sprinkle with flour, add cream, heat on low for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and add parmesan, stir to combine and let cool.
- Bon Appétit.
