  • Pass the dough through a pasta machine from the thickest to the thinnest setting.
  • Cut 6cm circles from the pasta and brush with beaten egg.
  • Fill circles with beef, fold into half moons, and seal into rings.
  • Sauté garlic and mushrooms in butter until golden.
  • Reduce Madeira and chicken stock by half in the pan.
