Ingredients
- Spinach
- 500g, fresh
- Ricotta cheese
- 250g
- Parmesan cheese
- 50g, plus extra for serving
- Eggs
- 2
- Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly grated
- All-purpose flour
- 100g, plus extra for dusting
- Salt
- to taste
- Black pepper
- to taste
- Butter
- 50g
- Sage leaves
- 10
Instructions
- Wash the spinach thoroughly and cook it in a pan with a small amount of water for about 5 minutes until wilted. Drain it well and once cool enough to handle, squeeze out extra moisture and chop it finely.
- In a large bowl, mix together the finely chopped spinach, ricotta cheese, grated parmesan cheese, eggs, freshly grated nutmeg, flour, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Lightly dust your hands and a tray with flour. Form small balls from the spinach-ricotta mixture and place them on the flour-dusted tray.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Gently drop the ravioli nudi into the water and cook them until they float to the surface, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
- While the ravioli nudi are cooking, melt the butter in a separate pan over medium heat. Add the sage leaves and cook until the butter starts to brown.
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the cooked ravioli nudi from the boiling water and add them to the pan with the browned butter and sage. Toss gently to coat.
- Serve the ravioli nudi immediately, topped with a generous sprinkle of extra parmesan cheese. Enjoy the creamy, melt-in-your-mouth goodness of this timeless Italian dish.
