Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup unsalted butter
8 fresh sage leaves
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Make the pasta dough: On a clean surface, mound the flour and make a well in the center. Crack eggs into the well, add olive oil and a pinch of salt. Using a fork, gradually incorporate flour into eggs until a shaggy dough forms. Knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic and rest for 30 minutes.
Make the filling: In a bowl, combine pumpkin puree, ricotta, Parmesan, salt, nutmeg, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Roll out the pasta: Divide dough into 4 pieces. Keep covered. Roll one piece through a pasta machine on thinnest setting, dusting with flour as needed. Lay sheet on floured surface.
Assemble ravioli: Place teaspoon-sized mounds of filling about 2 inches apart on half of the pasta sheet. Fold the other half over, pressing out air around each mound. Cut into squares with a ravioli cutter or knife. Press edges to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
Cook ravioli: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook ravioli in batches for 3-4 minutes until they float and are tender. Drain.
Make sauce: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sage leaves and cook until butter turns golden brown and smells nutty, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Toss cooked ravioli in the sage brown butter. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan.
Tips
To prevent sticking, dust ravioli with semolina flour and place in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Leftover ravioli can be frozen on a baking sheet, then transferred to a freezer bag. Cook from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to cooking time.
