Wrap in plastic and set aside for at least half an hour while you make the filling. Flour a work surface and roll out to the finest setting with a pasta maker. With a three inch square pasta cutter, cut into square, fill with 2 tsp of the filling, moisten the edges and seal. dust lightly with semolina to they dont stick.
- For the filling:
- Clean the mushrooms and heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with a smattering of olive oil. Heat mushrooms until soft. Drain liquid from pan. (This will help eliminate any grit from the mushrooms.) Remove from heat to a cutting board. Heat the pork in a pan over medium heat. When half-way browned, add the shallot and then the thyme. Remove from heat to the pile of mushrooms on the board. Dice finely. Mix in the cheese and salt and pepper.
- Boil a large pot of salted water. When boiling cook the ravioli for 5 minutes.
- Melt butter in a large pan, add the wine, paste, demi-glace and 1/4 cup of diced mushrooms (prepare black trumpets as above). Drain the pasta, reserving 3 TB of the cooking liquid. Toss the liquid and the ravioli in the pan with the sauce. Serve with grated cheese.
