Ingredients
Scale
- 2 filet mignon steaks
- 5 oz (142 g) mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic
- ¼ cup (15 g) parsley
- 2 tbsps olive oil
- 1.5 cups (180 g) flour
- 2 eggs
- Salt
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp grated onion
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1 cup (240 ml) beef stock
- ¼ cup (60 ml) red wine
- Chopped parsley
Instructions
- Mushroom Preparation: Sauté mushrooms, garlic, and parsley in olive oil over medium heat until moisture evaporates and vegetables become tender, approximately 15-20 minutes. Cool mixture to room temperature.
- Pasta Dough Creation: Combine flour, eggs, and salt to form a smooth, elastic dough through thorough kneading for 6-7 minutes. Allow dough to rest and develop optimal texture.
- Gravy Development: Melt butter and sweat onions until translucent. Incorporate flour, beef stock, and red wine, whisking continuously to create a glossy, rich sauce with velvety consistency.
- Ravioli Assembly: Roll pasta into delicate sheets. Layer beef tenderloin and cooled mushroom mixture on one sheet, carefully covering with a second pasta layer. Seal edges meticulously, eliminating air pockets to prevent potential rupture during cooking.
- Cooking Process: Immerse ravioli in rapidly boiling, salted water for 2-3 minutes until they float. Transfer to a hot skillet with olive oil, briefly searing to achieve a golden, crisp exterior.
- Plating and Garnish: Arrange ravioli on serving plates, drench with prepared gravy, and crown with fresh parsley leaves for an elegant, sophisticated presentation.
Notes
- Mushroom Prep Matters: Allow sautéed mushrooms to cool completely to prevent soggy ravioli and maintain distinct texture layers.
- Dough Kneading Technique: Work pasta dough until smooth and elastic to ensure perfect pasta structure and prevent cracking during cooking.
- Sealing is Critical: Remove all air pockets when layering ravioli sheets to prevent bursting during boiling and maintain filling integrity.
- Golden Sear Technique: Quick skillet searing after boiling creates a delicate crisp exterior that elevates the overall texture and flavor profile.
