Ravioli with Salmon - Primo

Italian Food

This is a very easy recipe to prepare. You don’t need many ingredients, just the dough for ravioli and the filling that is made of potatoes and smoked salmon, a very good combination of taste. The preparation of the dressing is also very simple and fast, you just need to melt some butter and add some black pepper. The only thing that is a bit long to do is the preparation of the dough for ravioli but it is also very easy and funny. You can safe some time using the machine for roll the dough instead of using the rolling pin. In both case you will obtain very delicious Italian ravioli with smoked salmon and potatoes.

INGREDIENTS (for 4 people):
300g of Flour
3 Eggs
Salt
2 Potatoes
200g of Smoked Salmon
40 g of butter
Black pepper

PREPARATION TIME: 1 hour

COOKING TIME: 10 minutes

WINE: Cortona Sauvignon Doc (White Wine)

PREPARATION
Mix flour with eggs and a bit of salt until you will obtain a homogeneous dough.

Then lei it stand for 30 minutes, in the meantime prepare the filling. Boil two potatoes and when they are cooked smash it. Cut the smoked salmon in little pieces and mix it with the smashed potatoes.

It’s time now to stand the dough so, roll out the dough, you can do this with the help of a rolling pin or more easily with the help of a pasta machine. Here I use the pasta machine. Start roll out the dough from the biggest thickness of the machine then little by little reduce it until you obtain a pastry of about 2 – 3 mm of thickness. Cut the pastry in long rectangular pieces like shown in the picture. Put in the middle of the pastry the filling and cover it with the rest of the pastry.

Now cut with the help of a star-shape ravioli, put them on a tray with a bit of flour (in order to not them attach each others).

Let the salted water boil for ravioli and cooked them in it for about 10 minutes. Prepare the dressing for ravioli with melted butter and black pepper.

When ravioli are cooked put on them the melted butter and serve hot.

BUON APPETITO!
