Ingredients

  • 300g tipo 00 flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 can (400g) artichoke hearts, drained
  • 250g ricotta cheese
  • 50g Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 100g unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Semolina flour for dusting

Instructions

1

Make the pasta dough by mounding flour on a clean surface, creating a well in the center. Add eggs and olive oil to the well, then gradually incorporate flour using a fork until a shaggy dough forms.

2

Knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap tightly in cling film and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.

3

Prepare the filling by finely chopping the drained artichoke hearts. Combine in a bowl with ricotta, half the Parmesan, minced garlic, lemon zest, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

4

Divide rested dough into 4 portions. Using a pasta machine or rolling pin, roll each portion into thin sheets approximately 1mm thick.

5

Place teaspoon-sized mounds of filling 5cm apart on one pasta sheet. Brush water around each mound, then lay a second sheet on top. Press firmly around each mound to seal and remove air pockets.

6

Cut ravioli using a 7cm round cutter or sharp knife. Transfer to a semolina-dusted tray and repeat with remaining dough and filling to make approximately 24 ravioli.

7

Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Cook ravioli in batches for 3-4 minutes until they float and the pasta is tender.

8

While ravioli cook, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes, swirling occasionally, until butter turns golden brown and smells nutty.

9

Remove brown butter from heat immediately and add lemon juice carefully (it will sizzle). Season with salt and pepper.

10

Using a slotted spoon, transfer cooked ravioli directly to the brown butter sauce. Gently toss to coat.

11

Serve immediately, garnished with remaining Parmesan, fresh chives, parsley, and extra lemon zest if desired.
