OUR LOBSTER AND CRAB RAVIOLI RECIPE
Our seafood ravioli lovingly pairs fresh, delicate lobster with juicy and sweet crab meat, dressed in a butter that is gently infused with sage, alongside a gentle sprinkling of lemony pangrattato (poor man's parmesan). To finish, we garnish with the poetically named asparagi di mare ('asparagus of the sea') - or samphire, in our native tongue - lending a final whisper of the Italian seaside to light yet luxurious dish.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the mascarpone, ricotta, and butter until smooth.
- Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Add the remaining ingredients and mix until well combined
- Then, all you need to do is follow the remaining steps in our making fresh ravioli recipe. Be sure to halve the quantity of ingredients for your pasta, as this recipe is designed for two to enjoy!
- Remove the butter from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature on the counter.
- Roughly chop the sage leaves and add to butter (you can even leave some of the sage leaves whole if you like, there's nothing better than a mouthful of butter soaked pasta with a crispy sage leaf). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Place the butter in a large pan and gently heat until the sage becomes crisp, and the mixture turns a deep golden colour.
- Once cooked, transfer the pasta to the butter. Toss gently to coat.
- Tear or grate your slices of bread, until you achieve a rustic but fine crumb. Scatter on a baking tray and gently toast in an oven. Once golden in colour and crunchy in texture, transfer the crumbs to a bowl, and toss with the zest of a fresh lemon.
- Wash your samphire thoroughly to remove any residual sand/dirt.
- Bring a pan of water to the boil, and blanch the samphire for a couple of minutes until cooked. Drain immediately and place over your ravioli, before scattering the dish with your citrusy pangrattato crumb. Serve and enjoy!

LOBSTER RAVIOLI WITH CRABMEAT CREAM SAUCE
Steps:
- For the Lobster Ravioli: In a large saute pan, add the butter and melt. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until golden brown. Add lobster, crab, and chives and saute 2 to 3 minutes. Add Cognac and reduce for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cool for 30 minutes, until room temperature. Chop lobster mixture into small chunks. In a large bowl, combine lobster mixture and ricotta and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
- Lay out the first piece of Pasta Dough on the table and place 1/4-ounce mounds of stuffing 2 inches apart. Using a pastry brush, brush egg white around each bit of stuffing, making the dough damp not wet. Take the second piece and cover the bottom piece with the stuffing. Press around each ravioli being careful not to squeeze the stuffing out. Using a round ravioli cutter, cut each ravioli round and put on a sheet pan sprinkled with semolina. Gently place ravioli in boiling water and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente.
- For the sauce: Using a 12-inch saute pan at medium heat, add butter, shallots, and saute until shallots are translucent. Add the crabmeat and saute for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the saute pan from the burner and add Cognac then place pan back on the heat to cook off the alcohol. (Please beware: the Cognac will create a large flame.) Once the flame stops, add the tomato sauce and cream with salt and cook until it reduces half way and becomes creamy. Add the cooked ravioli to the sauce and let cook together for about 1 minute before serving. Garnish with chives.
- Add all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl until all ingredients are blended. Place mixture on countertop and knead until the texture is smooth and well mixed. Separate the pasta dough into 2 equal pieces and put one piece aside. Flour the first piece, just enough to prevent sticking and roll out with a rolling pin to about 1/8th-inch thick. Repeat procedure with second piece making it as close to the shape as the first.
