Steps

  • Beat the eggs and egg yolks together in a bowl.
  • Process flour in a food processor, slowly adding eggs until a smooth dough forms.
  • Wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for one hour.
  • Knead the dough on a semolina-dusted surface for 2 minutes and chill for another hour.
  • Dry fry pine nuts in a pan over medium heat until golden-brown.
  • Mix toasted nuts with ricotta, parmesan, herbs, and lemon zest; season and set aside.
  • Warm olive oil over low heat, add garlic, and infuse using residual heat.
  • Divide the chilled pasta dough into four equal pieces.
  • Flatten one piece and pass it through the thickest setting of a pasta machine.
  • Fold the sheet and pass it through the next setting, folded edge first.
  • Continue rolling through progressively thinner settings until reaching the thinnest level.
  • Place teaspoons of filling along the sheet, starting 2.5cm from the edge.
  • Space portions 4cm apart, ending 2.5cm from the opposite edge.
  • Brush water around the filling and fold the dough over to cover.
  • Cut between mounds with a pastry wheel and pinch edges to remove air.
  • Place ravioli on a semolina-dusted tray and cover with cling film.
  • Repeat the rolling and filling process with the remaining dough.
  • Boil ravioli in a large pot of salted water for 3 minutes until al dente.
  • Drizzle with warm garlic oil, season with pepper, sprinkle with parmesan, and serve.
