RAVIOLI FE脪IL-CHR脵BAIG

Airson am pasta
200g/7oz fl霉r pl猫an no fl霉r Eadailteach 鈥00鈥
2 ugh

  • Cuir am fl霉r ann an inneal-bleith. Cuir na h-uighean ris agus pronn gus am bith coltas criomagan-arain air (cha bu ch貌ir dh脿 a bhith m矛n, agus cha bu ch貌ir dha a bhith na chnap m貌r). Cha toir seo ach mionaid. (Dh鈥檉haodar seo cuideachd a dh猫anamh le do l脿imh. Cuir am fl霉r air a鈥 bh貌rd agus d猫an tobair sa mheadhan. Bris na h-uighean na mheadhan agus cleachd do l脿mh gus am fl霉r a thoirt a-steach far na cliathaichean, a鈥 measgachadh an taois sa mheadhan gus a bheil am fl霉r gu l猫ir air a ghabhail a-steach agus gus a bheil taois meadhanach cruaidh agad) Cuir an taois air a鈥 bh貌rd agus fuin gus a bheil cumadh b脿lla agad. Fuin airson 1 mionaid 鈥 bu ch貌ir dh脿 a bhith gl猫 chruaidh agus doirbh fhuine. C貌mhdaich ann am plastaig agus f脿g san fhuaradair airson 30 mionaidean mus gabh a chleachdadh. (Gabhaidh am pasta fh脿gail san fhuaradair airson suas ri 24 uairean.)
  • A-nis, ge脿rr an taois na dh脿 leth. Airson gach leth, roilig am pasta gu mu 5mm/录鈥 de thighead. Dust am pasta le fl霉r agus cuir tron inneal-pasta aig an 矛re as fharsaing, a鈥 pasgadh agus a鈥 roileadh 7 tursan (gun a bhith ag atharrachadh na h-矛re) gus a bheil cumadh ceart-che脿rnach agad 7.5 x 18cm / 3 x 7鈥. Tha e cudromach a bhith ag obair air an taois gus a bheil e gleansach, oir bheir seo an coltas ceart air. D猫an an aon rud leis an d脿rna leth dhen phasta.
  • Tha thu a-nis deiseil airson a roileadh. T貌isich leis an inneal-pasta aig an 矛re as fharsaing agus cuir an taois tro na roilearan. Na paisg e, ach d猫an an aon rud a-rithist, ag 矛sleachadh na h-矛re roilidh gach turas a th猫id an taois tron inneal. Airson cleachdadh 脿bhaisteach, thoir am pasta s矛os chun an d脿rna 矛re mu dheireadh 鈥 gu h-脿raidh airson ravioli, seach gu bheilear a鈥 cur d脿 ph矛os c貌mhla nuair a tha e air a phasgadh. (Gabhaidh am pasta a roileadh le roilear, ach gu deimhinne 鈥檚 e obair chruaidh a th鈥 ann!)
  • Ge脿rr na chearcaill airson ravioli.

Bad phearsail

  • Teasaich an ola ann am pana le bonn trom agus praidhig na deiseagan aig teas 脿rd airson timcheall air 5 mionaidean, gam briseadh le ceann roileir fhad 鈥檚 a tha iad a鈥 bruich, gus an atharraich an dath. Cuir an t-uinnean, an curran, an leigeas, an creamh agus an carabhaidh ris agus bruich airson 5 mionaidean eile gus an t貌isich dath a鈥 tighinn air a鈥 ghlasraich.
  • Cuir na lusan agus am puree tom脿to ris, measgaich gu math agus bruich airson mionaid no dh脿 air teas 矛osal. Cuir am f矛on geal ris agus steallag mhath de dh鈥檜isge. Se脿san le piobar.
  • Cuir am mullach air a鈥 phana agus leig leis goil air a shocair airson uair a th矛de.
  • Cuir tro sh矛oltachan.
  • Till gu pana glan, se脿san ma tha feum air agus thoir chun a鈥 ghoil. Nuair a thathar deiseil airson ith, cuir an t-uachdar agus beagan fe貌il-chr霉baig gheal ris ma thogras sibh. Se脿san a-rithist ma tha feum air agus measgaich gu math gus nach binndich an t-uachdar. Cuir cr矛och air le bhith a鈥 cur 矛m na mheasg.

  • Cuir cearcall eile air a鈥 mhuin agus br霉th s矛os na h-oirean gus d猫anamh cinnteach gu bheil iad d霉inte.
  • Cuir an ravioli dhan uisge goileach agus bruich airson 3 mionaidean.
  • Cuir an ravioli air soitheach agus d貌irt an t-sabhs cr霉baig air a鈥 mhuin.

CRAB RAVIOLI

Fresh Pasta Dough
200g/7oz plain flour or Italian '00' flour
2 medium free-range eggs

  • Place the flour in a food processor. Add the eggs and keep pulse until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs (it shouldn't be dusty, nor should it be a big, gooey ball). This only takes a minute. (Alternatively, you can do this by hand. Put the flour on the work surface and form a well in the centre. Crack in the eggs and use your hand to draw in flour from the edges, mixing in the centre until all the flour is incorporated and you have a solid dough.)
  • Tip out the dough and knead to form into a ball shape. Knead it for 1 minute, it should be quite stiff and hard to knead. Wrap in cling film and leave to rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before using. (The pasta dough can be kept in the fridge up to 24 hours.)
  • Now cut the dough into 2 pieces. For each piece, flatten with a rolling pin to about 5mm/录 in) thickness. Dust the pasta with flour and pass it through the pasta machine at its widest setting, folding and rolling 7 times (not changing the setting) until you have a rectangular shape 7.5x18cm/3x7 in. It is important to work the dough until it is nice and shiny, as this gives it the bouncy texture. Repeat with the second piece of dough.
  • Now you are ready to roll out. Start with the pasta machine at its widest setting, pass the dough through the rollers. Do not fold but repeat this process, decreasing the roller setting down grade by grade with each pass. For most uses, take the pasta down to the penultimate setting - especially for ravioli, as you are sandwiching two layers together when it is folded. (You can roll pasta by hand with a rolling pin, but it will certainly give you a workout!)
  • Cut into rounds for ravioli.

Crab bisque for sauce
500g whole velvet crabs, broken into bits
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 leek, roughly chopped
1 fennel bulb, roughly chopped
1 carrot, roughly chopped
4 coves of garlic, roughly chopped
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 glass white wine
Splash double cream
2 knobs butter
Bunch of parsley
A few springs of thyme

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-based saucepan and fry the velvet crabs over a high heat for about 5 minutes, breaking them up with the end of a rolling pin as they are cooking, until they change colour. Add the onion, carrots, leek, garlic, fennel and continue cooking for another 5 minutes the vegetables begin to colour.
  • Stir well, then herbs and tomato pur茅e, stir well and cook for a minute or so over a low heat. Add the white wine and a good glug of water. Season with pepper.
  • Put the lid on the pan and allow to simmer very gently for 1 hour.
  • Strain through a colander.
  • Return to a clean pan, season if necessary, and bring to the boil. To serve, add the cream and some white crab meat if you wish. Adjust the seasoning again, if necessary, and stir well to avoid the cream splitting. Finish by stirring in the butter.

Brown crab meat
White crab meat
Salt
Black pepper
1 egg beaten

  • Bring a pan of salted water to the boil.
  • Brush the edges of the rounds with egg wash.

  • Place another round on top and press down on the edges to make sure it is sealed.

  • Place on a dish and pour the crab sauce on top.
