Cooking time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
18-20 pasta sheets (approx 13cm x 10cm/5in x 4in)
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
500g/17oz minced beef
500g/17oz ricotta cheese
150g/5oz mascarpone cheese
100g/3oz freshly grated parmesan cheese
Pinch of grated nutmeg
Salt & freshly ground pepper
700g/24oz pasatta
Small handful of fresh basil leaves
160ml/5 ½ fl oz double cream
Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
To serve
Freshly shaved parmesan
Italian salad leaves (if preferred)
Method
1. Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F/gas mark 6.
2. Add the olive oil to a large frying pan and gently fry the onion until softened. Now add the mince and gently fry until browned, set aside to cool.
3. In a large bowl add the ricotta, mascarpone, parmesan, nutmeg and the cooled mince. Mix thoroughly and season to taste.
4. In a large deep baking tray drizzle some of the pasatta so that you lightly cover the base.
4. Take a sheet of pasta and place two heaped tablespoons at one end and roll to form a tube and place in the baking tray. Repeat the process until the baking tray is full and all the pasta sheets have been used.
5. Pour over the remaining pasatta and scatter with the basil leaves, drizzle over the cream and season with salt and pepper.
6. Finally drizzle over some extra virgin olive oil and place in the oven for 20 minutes. Cover with foil for the first 10 minutes and then remove for the final 10 minutes.
7. To serve, divide between the serving plates and top with shavings of parmesan and pour yourself a glass of Italian red wine, enjoy!
