Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling:
2 pounds beef short ribs
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Ravioli Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
For Extra Flavor:
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (for the filling)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (for a warm spice note)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (to enhance the beef flavor)
Instructions
Prepare the beef short ribs by seasoning them with salt and pepper, then sear in a pot with olive oil until browned.
Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot, sauté until soft, then pour in beef broth and tomato paste. Cover and simmer for 2-3 hours until tender.
Make the ravioli dough by mixing flour and salt, creating a well for eggs and olive oil, then knead until smooth and let rest for 30 minutes.
Prepare the filling by shredding the cooked beef and mixing it with sautéed onions, garlic, thyme, and optional ingredients.
Assemble the ravioli by rolling out the dough, cutting circles, filling them, sealing, and crimping the edges.
Cook the ravioli in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes until they float, then remove with a slotted spoon.
Notes
Use well-marbled beef for a richer filling.
Let the filling cool before assembling to prevent the dough from becoming sticky.
Store uncooked ravioli in the freezer for later use.
