RAVIOLI:

 

1 lb 

 

(½ medium) butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into medium dice

 

1 Tbs 

 

extra-virgin olive oil

 

 

 

salt

 

2 cloves 

 

garlic, minced

 

½ tsp 

 

minced fresh rosemary

 

1 ounce 

 

thinly sliced prosciutto, minced

 

¼ cup 

 

freshly grated Parmesan cheese

 

48 square or round 

 

wonton wrappers
 

 

 

 

ROSEMARY OIL:

 

3 Tbs 

 

extra-virgin olive oil

 

1 Tbs 

 

minced fresh rosemary

 

 

 

freshly ground black pepper

 

 

 

freshly grated Parmesan cheese

 

 

1

To make ravioli: Combine squash, 1/3 cup water, olive oil, and a scant ½ tsp. salt in a Dutch oven or other pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and cook until squash is just tender and water has evaporated, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in garlic and rosemary and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Turn mixture into a soup plate or shallow bowl and mash squash with a fork until mostly smooth. Stir in prosciutto and cheese.

2

Wash out pot and fill with a generous 2 quarts of water. Add 1 T. salt and bring to a simmer.

3

Set out a large wire rack and a small bowl of water. Lay 6 wonton wrappers on a dry work surface. Brush edges with water, then drop 1 T. filling onto each wrapper. Working with 1 at a time, top each wrapper with another wrapper; press to seal completely. Transfer to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling, keeping work surface dry.

4

To make rosemary oil: Heat oil and rosemary in a small skillet over low heat until rosemary starts to sizzle. Remove from heat.

5

To cook ravioli: Drop 12 ravioli into simmering water. Cook until wrappers start to wrinkle and turn from opaque to translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove ravioli and arrange 3 on each plate. Drizzle with 2 tsp. cooking water and 1 tsp. rosemary oil. Sprinkle with pepper and Parmesan cheese, and serve. Cook remaining 12 ravioli, and serve them as soon as they are ready.

 

Serving. Size: 4 as main course or 8 as appetizer
