Nonna Marfisa'S Ravioli - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb lean ground beef
salt
pepper
garlic powder
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 (8 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
4 tablespoons olive oil (more if needed)
1 egg
1 -2 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
1 (100 count) package wonton wrappers

Preparation

Heat 1 Tbs. oil in large skillet, add meat and brown well.
Drain fat from meat and add salt, pepper, garlic powder and nutmeg. Set aside.
Drain thawed spinach, squeezing to eliminate excess water.
Saute spinach with 3 Tbs. oil sprinkled with garlic powder.
Add spinach to meat and stir well. Continue sauteing for 5-10 minutes.
Cool, then add egg and Paresan cheese mixing well.
Place 2 teaspoons filling into center of won ton wrapper. If using less filling - fold wrapper over and seal edges using a bit of water. If using more filling- place a second wrapper over filling and seal using a bit of water.
Note: Nonna made the filling and then placed several slices of bread into a bowl. Then put the filling on top of the bread. She let that sit in the refrigerator to absorb any excess fat drippings. Then she would place filling into pasta.
Place pasta in boiling water until float to top. Ravioli may be frozen.
