Naked Ravioli image

There is an Italian name for pasta stuffing that is served outside of the pasta: nudi, as in naked ravioli. Often, nudi are served without any pasta at all, as a starter. I like them, however, on pasta, either with a light tomato sauce or - as in this recipe - with butter, sage and Parmesan. It's fresh ravioli made realistic.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound veal
1/2 pound pork, or other ground meats
1 egg
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, more for garnish
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup minced onion
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound fresh or dried pasta, any kind
4 tablespoons butter
20 sage leaves

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine meat with egg, cheese, parsley, onion, and salt and pepper. Mix well but do not knead. Form into balls 1/2 inch in diameter. Refrigerate until ready to cook. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it.
  • Cook meatballs in water for about 5 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm. Cook pasta in same water until tender but not mushy. Meanwhile, in a medium pot cook butter and sage together until butter is light brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Before draining pasta, reserve a bit of its cooking water. Drain pasta, then toss it with butter-sage mixture and enough reserved water to make it saucy. Top with meatballs and serve, passing grated Parmesan at the table.
