Ingredients
- 2-1/2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 1-1/2 teaspoons olive oil
- sauce:
- 1-1/2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 can (28 ounces) Italian crushed tomatoes
- 1-1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 to 3 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- filling:
- 8 ounces burrata cheese, cut into 30 quarter-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup minced fresh basil
Directions
- Place 2-1/2 cups flour in a large bowl. Make a well in the center. Beat eggs, water and oil; pour into well. Stir together, forming a ball. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 4-6 minutes, adding remaining flour if necessary to keep dough from sticking. Cover and let rest 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute longer. Stir in remaining sauce ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until flavors are blended, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Keep warm.
- Divide pasta dough in half; on a lightly floured surface (or using a pasta roller) roll 1 portion to 1/16-in. thickness. (Keep pasta covered until ready to use.) Working quickly, arrange burrata pieces 1 in. apart over half of pasta sheet. Top each piece of burrata with a scant 1/2 teaspoon basil. Fold sheet over; press down to seal. Cut into squares with a pastry wheel. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
- In a Dutch oven, bring salted water to a boil; add ravioli. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer; cook until ravioli float to the top and are tender, 1-2 minutes. Drain. Serve with sauce.
