Ravioli alla Burrata With Pistachio Pesto image

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

250 grams all-purpose flour (about 2 cups)
3 grams fine sea salt (about 1/2 teaspoon)
3 large eggs
1/2 cup fresh ricotta cheese (about 4 ounces)
8 ounces burrata, torn into small pieces
Salt and pepper
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Semolina or fine cornmeal, for dusting
2 tablespoons shelled pistachio nuts (about 15 grams), more for serving
1 tablespoon walnuts (about 6 grams)
1 tablespoon pine nuts (about 6 grams), or more walnuts
2 cups fresh basil leaves (about 2 ounces)
1 garlic clove, smashed and peeled
1/4 cup Pecorino Romano, grated
2 tablespoons Parmesan, (grated), more for serving
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 egg yolk, whisked

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Put flour and salt in bowl of a food processor. Pulse briefly to combine. Add eggs and process for 30 to 60 seconds, or until dough forms a rough ball. If dough appears dry, add water 1 teaspoon at a time. If it is smearing along sides of mixer, add 1 tablespoon flour. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for 1 minute. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, mix ricotta, burrata, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the nutmeg. Add salt as needed.
  • Roll out pasta to the thinnest setting according to pasta machine instructions. Cut into four 22-inch long sheets.
  • Make the ravioli: Lay out a sheet of pasta and dollop 1/2 tablespoon mounds of filling in two lines, 2 inches apart. Brush egg yolk around filling. Lay another sheet of pasta directly over filling and use your fingers to press out any air pockets. Using a round 21/2-inch cutter, or larger, cut out ravioli around filling. Remove excess pasta and press edges closed with your fingers. Repeat with remaining sheets of pasta and filling. Let rest on a rimmed baking sheet sprinkled with semolina or cornmeal. Sprinkle with additional semolina to avoid sticking. Chill until ready to cook.
  • Make the pesto: In a blender or food processor, grind nuts. Add basil, garlic, pecorino, Parmesan, 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. With machine running, gradually pour in oil until a smooth sauce forms. Adjust seasoning.
  • Cook ravioli in boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, until pasta is cooked through. Drain well. Top with pesto and garnish with Parmesan and chopped pistachios.

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 packed cup fresh basil leaves
1/2 packed cup fresh Italian parsley leaves
1/2 packed cup fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) grated Parmesan
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
1 tablespoon anchovy paste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups (12 ounces), fresh whole-milk ricotta
3/4 packed cup (3 ounces) coarsely grated mozzarella, at room temperature
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, at room temperature
1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1 /2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten
35 store-bought wonton wrappers
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the pesto: In a food processor, combine the basil, parsley, mint, Parmesan, pine nuts, anchovy paste, pepper and garlic. Pulse until chunky. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the pesto is smooth.
  • For the ravioli: In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, mascarpone, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, nutmeg, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the egg and 1 teaspoon water until smooth.
  • Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the edges of the wonton wrappers with the egg mixture. Spoon 1 level tablespoon of the filling into the center of each wonton wrapper. Fold the opposite corners of each wonton wrapper over to form triangle shapes. Seal the edges firmly, pressing out any air around the filling. (Can be made a few hours in advance. Cover with foil and refrigerate until ready to use.)
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and the olive oil. In batches, add the ravioli to the water and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the ravioli and drain in a colander. Transfer the ravioli to shallow soup bowls. Spoon the sauce over the ravioli and serve.

GRILLED PESTO RAVIOLI



Grilled Pesto Ravioli image

Cooking the ravioli in one skillet all the way through means there is no need to boil, drain and reserve the starchy cooking water. The residual cooking water will thin out the pesto just enough for a loose coating and help the sauce thicken a touch without becoming gummy.

Steps:

  • Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet on the grill over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 chopped onion and sauté about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, add 2 sliced garlic cloves and cook 1 minute. Stir in 1 pound refrigerated ravioli and 2 cups water and shimmy the pan to settle the ravioli. Cover the grill and cook, stirring once or twice, until the ravioli are tender and the liquid has reduced to a thin layer, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1/2 cup pesto; top with basil and Parmesan.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible, especially for the pesto. Fresh basil, garlic, and pine nuts will give the pesto the best flavor.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can make the pesto by hand. Just chop the basil, garlic, and pine nuts very finely and then stir in the olive oil and Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overcook the ravioli. They should be cooked just until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Serve the ravioli with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.
  • If you have leftover pesto, you can use it as a spread for sandwiches or crackers, or as a marinade for chicken or fish.

Conclusion:

Ravioli con pesto is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of the delicate pasta, creamy pesto, and salty Parmesan cheese is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
