SPINACH AND RICOTTA RAVIOLI

450g spinach, cooked, finely chopped and cooled
 Half a 250g tub Asda Ricotta
 1 large egg
 1 quantity pasta dough (see 'Basic pasta' for recipe)
 Asda Napoletana sauce
 Parmesan shavings to serve

HOW TO MAKE:

1
Squeeze any moisture from the spinach, mix with the ricotta and egg, then season.
2
Roll out the dough to a thin rectangle shape, about 2mm thick and cut in half. Cover one piece with a damp, clean towel.
3
Put half teaspoons of spinach mixture on the uncovered piece of pasta in even, well-spaced rows. Brush a little water around the filling. Cover with the other sheet of pasta, then press firmly around each mound to seal.
4
Cut into ravioli, making sure each is sealed. Dry on a wire rack for 30 minutes.
5
Cook gently in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain, then serve with the heated sauce and Parmesan.
