Method
The ravioli dough
- Make the dough, mixing the flour and the eggs. Knead the dough well
- Leave to rest for a while before using
- Clean and wash the mushrooms, slice them
- Heat olive oil, add the chopped garlic and sauté for a while. Then add the sliced mushrooms
- Continue to sauté on low heat till all the water has evaporated. Set aside to cool
- When the mushrooms have cooled, chop them very finely
- Chop the smoked mozzarella finely, then add it to the mushrooms. Mix well, add the finely chopped fresh oregano and season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside
- Heat the butter in a saucepan, sauté the shallots to a golden colour. Deglace with the wine until reduced to half
- Add the cream and let simmer on low heat till the sauce has reached the required consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep in a warm place
- Place all the ingredients in a blender and mix to a smooth paste
- Roll out the dough very thinly. Using a medium-size pastry cutter, cut out circles
- Put some of the filling in the centre, brush the edge of the circle with egg wash
- Fold the ravioli to form a half-moon, pressing the edges firmly to make sure they are sealed
- Boil the pasta in boiling salted water for about three minutes
- Take out and place on a cloth to get rid of the excess water
- Place on a serving plate, spoon over the cream sauce. Garnish with drops of pesto and place a fresh sprig of basil in the centre
