Homemade Cheese Ravioli
Fresh pasta filled with a mixture of ricotta and parmesan cheese, mixed with fresh basil, lemon zest, and nutmeg for just the right amount of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1 batch Fresh Pasta Dough
1 cup ricotta (I use whole milk)
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon fresh basil, finely chopped
Pinch of salt and pepper
Pinch of nutmeg
Homemade Tomato Sauce
Additional parmesan and/or basil for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
Make fresh pasta and let it rest as directed. Spread additional semolina flour on a baking sheet and set aside. Roll out dough into two long rectangles using a pasta machine. Begin to boil a large stockpot full of well-salted water.
Mix together ricotta, parmesan, lemon zest, basil, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Using a small scoop, place a ball of filling on one half of the dough, approximately 1 inch apart.
