Steps

  • Pulse flour, seasonings, eggs, and olive oil in a food processor until breadcrumb texture forms.
  • Knead the mixture on a floured surface for five minutes until smooth and elastic.
  • Rest the dough in a covered bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Feed the dough through a pasta machine multiple times, decreasing the roller width at each step.
  • Cut the pasta sheet into 6cm squares.
  • Preheat the oven to 210°C.
  • Place pumpkin chunks in a roasting tin, drizzle with oil, and season.
  • Roast the pumpkin for 20 minutes until tender.
  • Cool the pumpkin slightly and blend into a smooth purée.
  • Heat the purée in a saucepan to remove excess moisture and allow to cool.
  • Stir in crushed biscuits, lemon juice, ginger, and seasoning.
  • Place one teaspoon of filling onto each pasta square and dampen the edges with water.
  • Top with a second pasta square, press to remove air, and seal the edges.
  • Repeat for all ravioli and place on a lined baking tray.
  • Cook butter in a frying pan until it achieves a nut-brown color.
  • Add lemon juice and seasoning, then remove from heat.
  • Sauté diced pumpkin in olive oil until golden-brown and tender.
  • Add pine nuts and fry for one minute until browned.
  • Heat 1cm of vegetable oil and fry sage leaves for 20 seconds until crisp.
  • Drain fried sage leaves on kitchen paper.
  • Boil ravioli in batches for 1-2 minutes until they float.
  • Toss ravioli in the butter sauce and serve topped with pumpkin, nuts, sage, and parmesan.
