Ingredients
Method
Make the Pasta Dough
- Combine the flour, eggs, and salt in a large bowl. Mix with your hands until it forms a soft dough. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta, chopped spinach, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, basil, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Roll Out the Dough
- Roll out the rested dough thinly with a pasta machine or a rolling pin until it's thin enough to see your hand through it, but not so thin that it tears.
Fill the Ravioli
- Cut the rolled-out dough into squares or circles (about 2 inches wide). Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each piece, brush the edges with water, fold them over, and squeeze tightly to seal.
Cook the Ravioli
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Cook the ravioli for about 4 minutes or until they float to the top. Drain with a slotted spoon.
Serve and Enjoy
- Drizzle with olive oil or toss with your favorite pasta sauce. Top with extra Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to customize the filling! Refrigerate the filling after mixing if you’re working ahead. Embrace rustic sauces for a homely feel.
