- 4 medium tomatoes skinned, seeded, and coarsely chopped
- 1/2 pound shrimp fresh, peeled, deveined, chopped
- 1 x black pepper cayenne
- 1 x white pepper white
- 1 x salt
- 9 ounces flour, all-purpose
- 1 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted, melted
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 x egg wash
- 1/2 cup basil pureed with 1 tbsp white wine
- 2 cups cream heavy
- 2 tablespoons cheese parmesan, grated
- 1 x salt to taste
- 1 x black pepper to taste
- Filling: Melt the butter in a saute pan, then cook the onion, and garlic in the butter for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Add the tomatoes and shrimp, heat to a gentle boil, then simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add cayenne pepper, salt, and white pepper to taste, then cook for 35 minutes.
- Set aside in a refrigerator until cold.
- Pasta: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and egg.
- Mix slowly, adding cooled melted butter, water, and salt.
- Mix only enough to incorporate, then run through a pasta machine to form thin sheets.
- (Mixing too much will result in a tougher pasta.)
- Sauce: Reduce basil puree by one-half.
- Add cream, reduce to a smooth consistency, and remove from heat.
- Add Parmesan cheese, salt and white pepper.
- Strain and reserve.
- (Sauce should be of a medium consistency.)
- Assembly: Lay buttered sheet of parchment paper on your work surface.
- Onto the parchment, place one sheet of pasta and brush it with egg wash. Place a large spoonful of filling about every 4 inches on the pasta sheet.
- Lay a second sheet of pasta over the top and form tightly around the filling, then brush with egg wash. Cut around piles of filling and parchment to form raviolis.
- Place raviolis in saute pan, and cover with water.
- Bring to a boil and cook al dente.
- Place cooked ravioli on a plate and cover with sauce.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves and chopped tomato.
