Foodie Friday: Spinach & ricotta ravioli & burnt butter

By Guest Poster โ€ข Leave a Comment

FacebookPinEmailTweet

 

Today’s recipe comes from Barbetta, a new restaurant in Sydney’s Paddington.ย The Cipri family were food-obsessed long before Barbetta. A close-knit clan from Palmi, Reggio Calabria in the south of Italy, they have been sharing their love of their culture and cuisine with Sydneysiders for over 30 years, particularly through their nearby fine dining restaurant Cipri Italian. Still feel a little intimidated by this recipe? Why not attend one of their fun cooking workshops and let them show you how?

BASIC PASTA RECIPE

What youโ€™ll need:

โ€ข 100g flour per person (plus extra flour for dusting) โ€ข 1 large egg per person

Throw it together:

1. Mound the flour in a bowl or on your kitchen bench

2. Make a well in the centre of your flour and add the eggs

3. Using a fork, beat the eggs together and then slowly start to incorporate the flour, starting with the inner rim of the well

4. As you mix, the well will expand. Keep pushing the flour up to retain the well shape

5. When half of the flour is used, the dough will begin to come together. Fold the dough in on itself a few times and then start to knead by hand on the bench for around 3 minutes

6. Rub your hands together to clean your hands of all dried dough. The dough will still be a little sticky

7. Place dough in a bowl and cover with a tea towel or table cloth to rest at room temperature for around 15 minutes before rolling out

SPINACH & RICOTTA FILLINGย 

Serves 4ย (makes approx. 30-40 ravioli โ€“ multiply basic pasta dough x 3)

What youโ€™ll need:

โ€ข 300g Ricotta
โ€ข 200g Baby spinach
โ€ข 1 clove garlic
โ€ข 50g Parmesan, grated
โ€ข Pinch grated nutmeg
โ€ข Salt to taste
โ€ข 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Throw it together:

1. Pan fry spinach with oil and garlic
2. Once cooked, strain well. Finely chop and allow to cool 3. Combine all ingredients together. Mix well
4. Spoon mixture into pasta shapes

RAVIOLI PREPA

Prepare pasta dough as per our pasta dough recipe above.

1. Cut dough in half and roll each half of the dough out on a floured bench, into a very thin sheet (about 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick).

2. FILLING THE RAVIOLI: Drop about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoon fuls of spinach & ricotta mixture about 1 1/2 inches apart all along the dough.

3. When the sheet of dough is fully dotted with dabs of filling mixture, lightly brush egg wash around the edge of filling mixture to act a seal.

4. Cover filling with other sheet of dough.

5. Using your fingers, gently press dough between each dab of filling to seal it.

6. Cut ravioli into squares with a (zig-zag edged) pastry cutter, or very sharp knife.

7. DRYING THE RAVIOLI: Allow ravioli to dry for one hour before cooking.

8. COOKING THE RAVIOLI: Drop ravioli into 6 litres of boiling, salted water and cook for about 8 minutes, or until dough is tender.

9. Remove cooked ravioli from pot carefully with a skimmer or a large slotted spoon, and drain well.

10. Best served with Barbettaโ€™s Salsa Napoletana (Napoli sauce) or Burnt butter & sage sauce (as per our recipe)

BURNT BUTTER & SAGE SAUCE

Serves 2

What youโ€™ll need:

โ€ข 100g salted butter
โ€ข 15 sage leaves, torn
โ€ข 20g grated parmesan
โ€ข Freshly ground black pepper & salt to taste

Throw it together:

1. Over low heat, melt the butter with the sage in a small saucepan until the butter is lightly golden. Remove sage and set aside for later

2. Continue to cook until the butter is golden brown. Add 150ml of boiling salted water from your pasta

3. Remove from heat and stir through a small pinch of sea salt, or to taste. Add your cooked pasta to the sauce and stir through. Add parmesan and garnish with sage to serve.

A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in th A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in this bathroom is one of the cleverest designs we've seen in a while!

This mega ledge, made of Corian, even incorporates a sink, seamlessly.

Combined with venetian plaster on the walls, it's no wonder this Illawarra bathroom by @birdblackdesign feels like a day spa!

Come check it out via link bio.

Lead designer Stuart Gibson says: "One smooth curve, right around the room, from either side of the door opening. As it moves around, it creates a ledge for the bath: for bath oils, lotions, a book and a champagne glass. The ledge continues around and becomes the vanity, widening out to create a custom seamless basin."

Play room goals!๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป This is just one room fr Play room goals!๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

This is just one room from today's real house tour which I really love because in employing interior designer @issyandhcreative the owners weren't looking for a complete rip out and re-do but rather to work with what they had in their new suburban home (including a dated kitchen) and give it a largely cosmetic glow up with styling and new furniture (some of which was upcycled). 

The brief was to create a family friendly home. "They weren't looking for perfection but rather a warm and relaxing retreat for their busy young family." This playroom though? Pretty close to perfect! And the mum did the colour coded books herself. Love that๐Ÿ˜

Head over to the blog now via link in bio to see the rest of this home.

Seb and Charlie had one of those kid size couches in their playroom but frankly, they'd outgrown it! I picked this Aussie made compact 2-seater Ruby sofa from @fantasticfurniture 

I'd usually go for grey to keep it neutral but as it's in a kid's room I went for this heather blue fabric to make it a little more fun while still classic. There's more than 50 fabric choices for Fantastic's Aussie made range so good luck choosing ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

I left the legs off to keep it below the windowsill. I'm super happy with the quality. It looks a lot more expensive than its $699 pricetag ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

Books, natural light and a cosy couch = happy boys! And let's not pretend they won't be watching the odd movie on there too ๐Ÿฟ because #keepingitreal

Last week we interviewed chalk paint pioneer Annie Last week we interviewed chalk paint pioneer Annie Sloan from her UK base about colour and Aussies' relationship with it. (And how's this for a before & after kitchen?! ๐Ÿ˜)

Annieโ€™s latest green hue, Coolabah Green, is inspired by the Eucalyptus trees of her childhood (did you know she was born in Sydney?). โ€œI made it in tribute to Australia and Iโ€™m thrilled to say thatโ€™s been really popular both here in the UK and in Australia. Itโ€™s a kind of smoky, silvery sage green thatโ€™s very easy to work with and would complement accents of Amsterdam Green deliciously.โ€

Sales stats show Aussies are all about greens while elsewhere in the world greys and blues are more popular from her range. So tell me, are you a green lover?

Head to the blog to read Annie's thoughts on upcycling furniture and more. Via link in bio.
