Shrimp Ravioli

2 tablespoons butter
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon minced garlic
salt and pepper
1 1-inch thick slice French bread, diced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1 16-ounce package wonton wrappers
1 egg white
1 28-ounce can basil, garlic and oregano seasoned diced tomatoes
salt and pepper
1 cup whipping cream
1 dash nutmeg
grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, for garnish

Melt butter over medium-high heat in a medium saucepan. Add shrimp and garlic and saute until shrimp are just cooked. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place shrimp in bowl of food processor. Add diced French bread and cheese and pulse several times. Lay one wonton wrapper on a work surface. Place 1 tablespoon of filling in the center, brush edges with egg white and top with another wonton wrapper. Press edges down with the tines of a fork to seal tightly. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers until all of the shrimp mixture is used. While you prepare the ravioli, bring a large pot of water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Bring the canned tomatoes to a boil in a saucepan, then reduce heat to medium low. Simmer the tomatoes for 10 to 15 minutes, until liquid is slightly reduced. Boil ravioli for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the whipping cream and nutmeg to the tomatoes. The sauce can be served chunky, or can be pureed with an immersion blender or mashed with a potato masher. Top the ravioli with the sauce and some grated Parmesan or Romano and serve. Makes 6 servings.

Apple-Cabbage Ravioli with Bacon & Thyme Broth 
Serves 6

Ingredients

Ravioli Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil


Apple-Cabbage Filling
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
2 cups finely chopped green cabbage
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 Golden Delicious Apple, peeled, cored, and grated
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1 large egg white, beaten


Bacon and Thyme Broth
4 ounces thick-cut bacon coarsely chopped
2-1/2 cups water
1 large cube chicken bouillon
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1-1/2 tablespoons cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon cold water

Method:

Prepare ravioli dough: In a large bowl combine flour, cornstarch and salt. In measuring cup, beat together water, eggs and oil. Pout egg mixture into flour mixture and beat until dough forms. This can also be done in a food processor. Divide dough into quarters, wrap in plastic and let rest while preparing filling.

To prepare apple-cabbage filling, heat butter in large skillet. Add onion and sauté until golden. Add cabbage, water, salt and pepper to onion mixture; cover and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, Add apple to mixture, cover, and cook 7 to 8 minutes or until apple softens. Remove filling mixture from heat, stir in ricotta and set aside until cool enough to handle.

To make ravioli, line two baking sheets with clean cloths; dust cloths generously with flour. On lightly floured surface, roll out one quarter ravioli dough to a thin (1/16 inch) 9-inch square. Brush square with egg white and cut square into thirds, creating nine 3-inch squares. Place 2 teaspoons apple-cabbage filling in center of each square. Fold top corner of each square over filling to meet opposite bottom corner, creating a triangle. Pinch seam sides of triangle to seal completely. With knife or pastry wheel, trim edges slightly. Place ravioli on cloth-covered baking sheet. Repeat rolling, cutting, and filling with remaining dough. Dust tops of ravioli with flour, and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 1 hour. (To freeze ravioli, arrange in a single layer on floured sheet and place in freezer until frozen; store in sealed plastic bags for up to 3 weeks. If cooking from frozen, increase cooking time 2 to 3 minutes.

Just before serving, prepare bacon and thyme broth; In deep skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and set aside. Drain fat from skillet, add water and bring to boil. Stir in bouillon cube in thyme, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Stirring, add cornstarch mixture to bouillon mixture. Bring to boil and stir constantly until mixture thickens,. Remove from heat and add reserved bacon; set broth aside while ravioli cooks. In large pot, bring 3 quarts water to boiling; add ravioli an cook 5 to 7 minutes or until tender. Drain, divide among serving bowls or deep plates and ladle bacon and thyme broth over all. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired, and serve.

Apple-Cabbage Ravioli with Bacon & Thyme Broth 
Serves 6

Homemade ravioli is a great family project - set up an assembly line with one person rolling and measuring, another filling the ravioli, and another (kids preferred) trimming with a speedy pastry wheel. Once made, ravioli can be frozen until minutes before serving. NOTE: To make this recipe more quickly, substitute wonton wrappers for ravioli dough and proceed from step 2.

Ingredients

Ravioli Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil


Apple-Cabbage Filling
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
2 cups finely chopped green cabbage
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt

Ravioli

4 cups flour
3 eggs
1 tablespoon water

Mix the above ingredients together, making a dough and work until firm. Cut in two and roll into 2 thin sheets.

Filling:
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 beaten egg
2/3 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt

Saute onion in butter or margarine until onion is tender but not brown. Squeeze spinach to remove the excess moisture, then add to the sauteed onions mixture and heat through. In mixing bowl combine egg, ricotta, Romano, salt, nutmeg and spinach mixture. Mix thoroughly. Place 1 teaspoon of mixture on one of the dough sheets spacing at about 2 inches. To seal the dough, dip your finger into cold water and moisten the dough around each ricotta mound. Place second sheet over the first and press with fingers around each mound. Cut into 2 inch squares, making sure that the edges are well sealed. Boil water which is salted, add a little olive oil to the water to prevent sticking. Drop the ravioli one by one into the boiling water. Cook in batches not to crowd the pan. The ravioli will rise to the top of the water when they are cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon. Serve with quick tomato sauce or with butter and Romano cheese.

Fried Ravioli
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds of pork
  • 1 1/2 pounds of chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup of chopped green olives
  • 2/3 cup of parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 lemon rind, grated
  • 1 teaspoon of freshly-grated nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • Salt to taste, be careful, the cheese and olives are salty
Preparation
Cook the pork and chicken breast in your favorite tomato gravy recipe. Do not substitute any other meats such as beef or lamb. If you do, you run the risk of altering the flavor. Remove cooked, cooled meats from the sauce and grind them using a food grinder or meat processor. Add the remaining ingredients to the ground meat mix (do not over-process). Mix the ingredients into the meat and put into the refrigerator to cool for at least one hour.

Use your favorite recipe for pasta dough and ensure it is rolled out thinly. Place a generous teaspoon of the meat filling in the center of a three-inch square, fold and crimp edges with a fork. Fry the ravioli in 1/2-inch of canola oil until the dough is golden brown. Coat them on both sides with granulated sugar and serve.

Have standing by, a large, flat dish of grated parmesan cheese. Place the ravioli in the dish and coat each one individually top and bottom with cheese and place on a large, flat serving platter. Do not put ravioli on top of each other for they will stick together. Dust the ravioli with ground cinnamon and serve.

EASY HOMEMADE FOUR-CHEESE AND FRESH SPINACH RAVIOLI IN WONTON SKINS

MAKES ABOUT 4 DOZEN RAVIOLI

I heard and read so much about making ravioli using wonton skins, I decided I had to try it. After all, the fillings are easy to make. It’s just the fresh pasta that takes so long to make, and I usually don’t have the time. Well, the wonton wrappers are great, making this an easy meal for any day of the week. Recently, I saw a recipe by Tyler Florence that uses chopped fresh baby spinach leaves in the cheese filling, and I thought about how much time that would save as compared to the usual frozen chopped spinach, which needs to be thawed and thoroughly drained. It works perfectly. It is best to use packaged, pre-washed spinach leaves so that you don’t need to worry about rinsing and getting rid of all of the moisture. This recipe makes a large amount of filling. See notes below for alternatives.

INGREDIENTS

  • One container (15 ounces) ricotta cheese, whole milk or part-skim
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated aged provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Romano cheese, preferably Pecorino
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, preferably Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 cups (packed) pre-washed baby spinach leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 package (40 pieces) square or round wonton skins

Place a a piece of cheesecloth or coffee filter in asmall strainer or sieve, then place over a small bowl. Add the ricotta cheese, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour. (You prepare this the night before you plan to make the ravioli. The purpose is to drain the cheese and remove excess moisture. This step is not absolutely necessary, but I always do it in case the ricotta I purchase is very moist.)

In a medium bowl, mix together the cheeses, garlic, spinach, basil, parsley, salt and pepper. Taste for seasoning, adjust as desired, then add the egg and stir well to combine. Place an even number of wonton skins on a clean, flat surface. Using a brush or your finger, moisten the outer edges of half of the skins with water. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of filling into the center of each of the moistened halves. Top with the other skins, pressing to make certain the edges are sealed well and towards the filling to get the air out. Place on a large baking sheet lined with waxed or parchment paper in one layer. Continue to fill the remaining wonton skins. Refrigerate until use. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. (Salting the water is optional. I think that the wonton skins and cheese filling have a sufficient amount of salt, but make it to your taste.) Cook the ravioli, in batches if necessary, until the filling is hot and the dough is cooked, about 3 minutes. Drain and serve immediately, with your favorite homemade or store-bought marinara sauce, just enough to cover all of the ravioli..

Notes: You can either cut the filling recipe in half or make it all, using only some of the wrappers and freezing the excess filling for later. Alternately, make all of the ravioli, freezing the extra on a baking sheet before cooking, then packing into freezer bags for future meals. If they are frozen, cook them from the frozen state for about the same amount of time. If you want smaller ravioli, just use one wrapper, place half of the filling to one side of the center, fold over and seal.
