Spinach and Mushroom Ravioli
- 1/4 cup plus 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for dusting the baking sheet)
- 6 egg roll wrappers
- 1 large egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water
- 1/2 cup finely chopped assorted mushrooms (such as cremini, button, and stemmed shiitake)
- 2 1/2 cups Marinara Sauce (page 59)
- In a large saute pan, heat 1/4 cup of oil over a medium-high flame.
- Add the sliced button mushrooms and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
- Saute until the liquid has evaporated from the mushrooms, about 6 minutes.
- Add the spinach and saute for 2 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to the bowl of a food processor.
- Pulse until a coarse texture forms.
- Transfer the spinach mixture to a large bowl and stir in 1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese and the mascarpone.
- Season the filling with more salt and pepper to taste.
- Lightly flour a baking sheet.
- Arrange 3 egg roll wrappers on a cutting board.
- Brush with the egg and water mixture.
- Using a tablespoon, spoon 4 mounds of the spinach mixture 1 inch apart on each wrapper, forming 2 mounds on the first row and 2 mounds on the second.
- Top each with another wrapper and press around the filling to seal the edges.
- Using a fluted ravioli cutter, cut out the ravioli squares, forming 12 total.
- Place the ravioli on the prepared baking sheet and cover with a clean towel.
- In a large, heavy saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over a medium-high flame.
- Add the chopped assorted mushrooms and saute until soft and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 8 minutes.
- Carefully stir in the marinara sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Season the mushroom sauce with more salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil.
- Adding 4 ravioli at a time to the boiling salted water, cook the ravioli until tender, about 3 minutes (working in small batches will prevent the ravioli from crowding in the pot and sticking together).
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the ravioli to 2 plates.
- Spoon the mushroom sauce over the ravioli, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and serve immediately.
