Ravioli

Ingredients

  • 12 wonton wrappers
  • 2 Josephine pears peeled, cored and finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon soft brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons mascarpone
  • Salt and pepper


Method

  1. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add the butter. When the butter is melted and bubbling, add the Josephine pear and stir to coat
  2. Sprinkle in the sugar and nutmeg and cook for 2 minutes or until just softening and browning. Remove from the heat, place in a ceramic bowl and set aside to allow to cool
  3. When the pear mixture is cool, fold in the mascarpone and lightly season with salt and pepper
  4. Place each wonton wrapper onto a clean flat surface. Place a teaspoon of the pear and mascarpone mixture into the centre of each wrapper
  5. Dip your finger into warm water and run it along the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the mixture to create a triangle and press down on the edges
  6. Place a large pot of water over a high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce to a gentle simmer and carefully place the ravioli, a few at a time, into the water
  7. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes each then remove with a slotted spoon. Place 3 ravioli onto each plate and spoon over the sauce and some shaved parmesan. Serve immediately
