5 minutes

Duck egg ravioli with exotic mushroom sauce

Serves 2

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 50 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

For the ravioli:

100 g pasta flour, plus extra for dusting
a pinch of sea salt
1 free-range chicken egg
flour for dusting
2 duck eggs, separated (at fridge temperature)
fresh thyme, to garnish

For the exotic mushroom sauce:

1 T olive oil
1 small onion, sliced
1 garlic clove, sliced
200 g exotic mushrooms, sliced
4 T vegetable stock
1/2 t sea salt
2 back bacon rashers, finely sliced
a pinch of dried chilli flakes
1/2 t dried thyme
2 T cream

Method

To make the ravioli, mix the pasta flour, salt and chicken’s egg using a fork.

Form into a dough, neither too wet nor too dry (add flour or water as required) – then turn out onto a flour-dusted work surface.

Knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth and silky, then cover in clingfilm and chill for 30 minutes.

Cut the dough in half and roll out each piece to number 6 on your pasta machine.

Alternatively, roll out thinly on a floured surface. Cut each sheet in half, then place a duck egg yolk into the centre of each sheet.

Use the egg white to moisten the area around the yolk, then place a second sheet of dough on top and seal the edges taking care not to break the yolk.

Cook the ravioli in salted boiling water for 3 minutes.

Drain, then serve topped with the exotic mushroom sauce and fresh thyme.

To make the mushroom sauce, heat the oil in a large pan and sauté the onion and garlic until soft and fragrant.

Add the mushrooms, stock and salt and fry until the mushrooms have cooked down.

Add the bacon, chilli fl akes, thyme and a little water if necessary and fry until reduced.

Add the cream and heat through.
