Crab Ravioli in Tomato Broth
Filling for Crab Ravioli:
8 oz. crab meat (fresh or canned)
2 oz. mascarpone cheese
1 TBS Parmesan cheese
1 TBS fresh chives, chopped
Pinch black pepper
1 egg
Round wonton skins
Broth for Crab Ravioli:
4 oz. of crab or chicken broth
1 TBS small plum tomatoes, diced
1 TBS fresh chives, chopped
1 pinch of thyme
1 TBS butter
Salt & black pepper to taste
Filling: Pick over crab meat to remove any remaining shell pieces. Place crab meat in a small bowl; mix with mascarpone and parmesan cheeses, chopped chives and egg. Season with black pepper. On a flat dry surface, lay out wonton skins. Fill each wonton in the middle with about two tablespoons of the crab filling. Lightly wet edge of the wonton skin with your finger and fold over, sealing the edges. Make sure ravioli edges are sealed all the way around. Place each ravioli on a lightly floured tray; refrigerate until ready to cook.
Broth: In a small cooking pot, bring the chicken or crab broth to a boil. Add diced tomatoes, thyme and butter. As soon as the butter dissolves, turn off the heat until ready to serve. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; add raviolis in small batches and cook for about three minutes. Gently drain in a colander. Place drained raviolis in a serving dish. Pour broth over the top. Serve. Recipe makes about twelve raviolis.
