Ingredients
Scale
For the Pasta:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 pinch salt
For the Filling:
- 1 medium butternut squash (about 1.5 lbs)
- 1 egg yolk
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
For the Sauce:
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Handful of fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
Instructions
For the Pasta:
- 1. In a bowl, combine flour and salt. Create a well in the center and crack in the eggs. Mix until combined into a dough ball.
- 2. Knead on a floured surface for about five minutes until smooth.
- 3. Wrap in plastic and let rest for 30 minutes.
For the Filling:
- 1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roast cut-side down on a baking sheet for about 30-40 minutes until tender.
- 2. Once cooled, scoop the flesh into a bowl and mix with egg yolk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Assembling the Ravioli:
- 1. Roll out rested dough as thin as possible without tearing. Cut into squares or circles about three inches across.
- 2. Place about one tablespoon of filling onto half of each square/circle of dough. Fold over and seal tightly by pressing down around edges.
- Cooking the Ravioli:
- 1. Bring salted water to boil in a large pot. Gently drop in ravioli and cook for about four minutes or until they float.
- 2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and add fresh sage leaves until fragrant.
- Serve drizzled with sage butter sauce.
