Prosciutto Ravioli Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the ricotta, spinach, prosciutto, egg yolks, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the ricotta filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edge of the wrapper lightly with water. Fold the wrapper in half, enclosing the filling completely and forming a triangle. Pinch the edges to seal. Transfer the ravioli to baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers. (Can be prepared up to 2 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
• Melt the butter in a heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add the oregano and stir 1 minute. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Working in batches, cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer the ravioli to a large shallow bowl.
• Pour the oregano butter over the ravioli and toss gently to coat. Sprinkle the pecorino over the ravioli and serve.

Steps:

• Put a pot of salted water on to boil.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium to medium/high heat.
• Add prosciutto and let cook for 5 minutes.
• Add chopped roma tomatoes and cook for 4 more minutes.
• Add chopped sage and pepper.
• Add your ravioli to the boiling water.
• Add heavy cream to your tomato/prosciutto mixture and stir well.
• Bring just to a boil and lower heat to a high simmer.
• As ravioli begin to float, scoop them out of the pot and add to the skillet with the sauce mix.
• Add cheese and gently toss to coat.
• Serve with a green salad and garlic breadsticks.

Steps:

• Combine the prosciutto, spinach, ricotta, egg yolk, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Mix the cornstarch with a couple of tablespoons of cold water in a small dish.
• Place six or so wonton skins on work surface. Keep remaining skins covered. Place a gently rounded teaspoonful of the filling in the center of the skin.
• Dip your finger in the cornstarch mix (stir it up, as it will settle) and wet two edges of the skin. Fold over the other two edges to form a triangle. Try to keep the filling centered, as if it spreads to the edges, you won't be able to get a good seal.
• Continue until all skins are used up. Depending on the exact size of your wonton skins, you may end up with more or fewer ravioli.
• Heat a large pan of salted water to boiling. Reduce the heat so that the water is simmering and not at a full boil. Drop the ravioli in one by one. They will take no more than two or three minutes to cook. Don't crowd the pan, cook in batches. Remove with strainer and drain well.
• Serve with your favorite pasta sauce. I like to use recipe #64635. I would not use a typical marinara. Garnish with parmesan cheese, if desired.
• Note1: Delis often sell prosciutto ends for a fraction of what sliced prosciutto costs. That's what I buy to make this and other dishes calling for chopped prosciutto.
• Note2: These freeze very well. Freeze in a single layer and then package in appropriate container. Do not thaw; they will take app. 3 to 4 minutes to cook.
• Note3: These can also be used for a first course, three or four per serving.
