raving about my ravioli

So the hubs is suspected down with H1N1, unfortunately he came into contact with a student that is now in hospital with the virus. He's been down with fever since Friday and we can't go out as it is socially not the right thing to do. He's of course resting, sleeping most of the time and yes I am BORED to death haha! So what do I do...cook and blog! This is my attempt to make ravioli from scratch, ok not really. I cheated by using wanton skins instead of making the pasta dough. And dress it with creamy herb and bacon sauce. Was a big hit with the hubs. He said strangely it does not taste like Chinese wanton at all haha! Maybe it's the sauce...

Ingredients

Ravioli (makes 8 ravioli)

• 4 medium prawns, diced
• 20g crab meat
• 1 shitake mushroom, diced
• 1 teaspoon parmesan cheese, finely grated
• 1 teaspoon cream or ricotta cheese
• Salt, pepper & dash of dried mixed herbs
• 16 ready-made wanton skins

Sauce

• 3 slices bacon, chopped
• 1 teaspoon garlic, diced
• 2 egg yolks
• 2 tablespoon parmesan cheese, finely grated
• olive oil, salt, pepper & dried mixed herbs

Method

1. Make the ravioli by mixing the first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Lay out 8 wanton skins, spoon 1 teaspoon heap of the mix into the centre of the skin. Seal by lining with water and top with another skin.
2. Cook the ravioli in boiling salt water for about 8mins.
3. To make the sauce, saute the garlic and bacon in olive oil and turn off the fire.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and cheese till blended. Season and add to the bacon and mix thoroughly. Make sure to do this off the fire or you'll get scrambled eggs ;)
5. Dish 4 ravioli onto a plate, spoon the sauce over top with freshly cracked black pepper and serve. Enjoy!
