Roasted Butternut Squash Ravioli with Sage, Hazelnut and Brown Butter Sauce

Ingredients

  • 2 butternut squash, halved and seeded
  • Pinch cinnamon
  • Pinch nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped orange zest
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle puree
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4 sheets pasta dough, 12 to 14 inches long by 4 inches wide
  • 2 eggs mixed with 2 tablespoons water
  • Chopped chives
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup coarsely ground hazelnuts
  • 8 sage leaves, chiffonade
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Watch how to make this recipe.
  2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  3. Place squash on a baking sheet and roast until soft 30 to 40 minutes. Scoop out flesh and run though a food mill. Place the puree into a medium saucepan and cook over low heat until almost dry. Add the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste. Lay a sheet of pasta dough on a lightly floured work surface and distribute a heaping teaspoon-sized portion of the filling at least 2 inches apart. Use your fingertip or a brush to moisten the edges of the pasta sheet with the egg wash. Carefully place a second sheet of the pasta dough on top of the first and press with your fingertips to separate the rows of filling. Repeat with the remaining dough. With a ravioli cutter or pastry wheel, cut along straight lines on the vertical and horizontal to form each ravioli square. Press the edges closed with your fingertips to seal well. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop in the ravioli and cook for about 5 minutes. Drain, plate and spoon butter sauce over and garnish with finely chopped chives.
  4. Melt butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat and cook until the foam subsides and the butter begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the hazelnuts and sage and season with salt and pepper to taste.
