Ingredients

1 (15-ounce) container whole milk ricotta cheese

1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry

4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, chopped

2 large egg yolks

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

48 wonton wrappers

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

Freshly grated pecorino

Directions

  1. Whisk the ricotta, spinach, prosciutto, egg yolks, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.  
  2. Place 1 tablespoon of the ricotta filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Brush the edge of the wrapper lightly with water. Fold the wrapper in half, enclosing the filling completely and forming a triangle. Pinch the edges to seal. Transfer the ravioli to baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers. (Can be prepared up to 2 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
  3. Melt the butter in a heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add the oregano and stir 1 minute. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
  4. Working in batches, cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes per batch. Transfer the ravioli to a large shallow bowl.
  5. Pour the oregano butter over the ravioli and toss gently to coat. Sprinkle the pecorino over the ravioli and serve.

I have made this recipe twice now, and it is delicious!  The raviolis need to be cooked longer than 4 minutes for my taste. We used a metal colander to hold the raviolis down under the water while they cooked, otherwise they seemed to be partly raw no matter how well I stirred them. <div>I plan to use this filling for stuffed shells or lasagna next. </div>
