Cheese Ravioli with Fresh Tomato Sauce

This classic cheese ravioli with fresh tomato sauce is a wonderful way to enjoy the art of Italian cooking at home. Making your own pasta from scratch is a rewarding process, resulting in a delicate texture that shop-bought varieties simply cannot match. The rich filling, a blend of creamy ricotta and sharp Parmesan, provides a savoury depth that perfectly complements the bright, vibrant flavours of a simple homemade tomato sauce.

As a nutritious vegetarian main course, this dish is ideal for a relaxed weekend dinner or a special occasion. High in protein from the fresh eggs and cheeses, it offers a satisfying and comforting meal when served with a crisp green salad or some crusty sourdough. Mastering the technique of sealing the pasta ensures every bite is filled with smooth, melted cheese.

Ingredients for Cheese Ravioli with Fresh Tomato Sauce

  • 3 large eggs

  • 6 egg yolks

  • 375g flour

  • 1 (450g) container ricotta

  • 150g grated Parmesan

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

How to make Cheese Ravioli with Fresh Tomato Sauce

Combine the ingredients in a food processor. Process until the dough mixture leaves the sides of the bowl. Remove to a mixing bowl and knead by hand for a few minutes until smooth. (If the dough is too dry, add a few drops of water.) Divide into 4 equal parts and shape them into discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 1 hour.

Put the cheeses, salt, and pepper in a blender and pulse. Add the egg yolks and pulse until incorporated.

Roll the discs of dough into thin sheets in a pasta machine. Arrange tablespoon-size dollops of the filling 1 1/2 inches apart on one of the sheets. Brush a little egg white around each dollop, then place another sheet directly on top. Gently press around the filling to remove any air pockets and seal the sheets. Using a ravioli cutter or a knife, cut out ravioli squares. Sprinkle with flour to prevent the dough from sticking.

Cook the ravioli in plenty of boiling salted water until they float to the top, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain well and toss with the Fresh tomato sauce . Garnish with the remaining chopped basil and serve immediately.
