Green Pea Ravioli In Lemon Broth Recipes

RAVIOLI WITH LEMON, PEAS AND PANCETTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, turning, until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and wipe out the skillet.
• Add the ravioli to the boiling water and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain gently.
• Combine the butter and lemon zest and juice in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Add the peas, ravioli and 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking water; toss to coat. Stir in the pecorino and toss. Season with salt and pepper. Add more cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to loosen.
• Divide the ravioli, peas and any sauce among shallow bowls. Sprinkle with more pecorino. Crumble the pancetta and scatter over the ravioli. Top with basil.

GREEN PEA RAVIOLI IN LEMON BROTH

Steps:

• Make filling:
• Force peas through the fine disk of a food mill into a bowl to remove skins.
• Cook shallot in oil in a small skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. Remove from heat and stir into pea purée with cheese and crumbs. Season filling with salt and pepper.
• Fill ravioli:
• Put 1 won ton wrapper on a lightly floured surface, keeping remaining wrappers covered with plastic wrap, and mound a level teaspoon of filling in center. Lightly dampen edges of wrapper with a fingertip dipped in water and fold over to form a triangle, pressing down around filling to force air out and pressing edges together firmly to seal. Moisten 1 end of long side of triangle and fold opposite end over, creating a little hat shape, then pinch ends together to seal. Transfer to a dry kitchen towel and make 17 more ravioli in same manner.
• Cook ravioli:
• Combine broth, garlic, zest, and salt and pepper to taste in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes, then drain.
• Divide ravioli among soup plates (3 each) and ladle broth over them, discarding garlic.

GREEN PEA RAVIOLI WITH TRUFFLE BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Force peas through the fine disk of a food mill into a bowl to remove skins.
• Cook shallot in oil in a small skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. Remove from heat and stir into pea puree with cheese and crumbs. Season filling with salt and pepper.
• Fill ravioli with a level teaspoon of filling in each. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with a dry kitchen towel. Ravioli may be made up to this point 1 day ahead, covered and refrigerated or they can be frozen.
• To make the sauce: Simmer the vinegar and wine over medium heat and reduce until it forms a light syrup (watch carefully toward the end as it tends to burn). Add the cream and reduce heat to low. Whisk in butter pieces one at a time, until emulsified. Add truffle oil, if using. Salt to taste. Set aside and keep warm until ravioli are cooked.
• Cook ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes, then drain. Toss with sauce then serve immediately.

GREEN PEA SAUCE FOR RAVIOLI AND PASTA (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients into a pot together and bring to a boil.
• Cook uncovered for 3-5 minutes, until the peas have turned tender. Fresh peas won't take long; if you're using REALLY frozen ones like I did you might at least 6-7 minutes.
• Puree in a blender or food processor until totally smooth; it will be a thin sauce. Can be eaten right away or chilled for future use. Keeps for about a week, but freezes well.
