Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 24 sheets Wonton wrappers
- 1 Egg
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 cups Marinara sauce
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.
In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg with 2 tablespoons of water to create an egg wash.
Lay out 12 wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cheese mixture in the center of each wrapper.
Using a small brush or your fingertip, lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with the egg wash.
Place another wonton wrapper on top of each filled wrapper, pressing the edges to seal and remove any air pockets. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch and to ensure they are fully sealed.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully drop the ravioli into the boiling water in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the ravioli float to the surface.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked ravioli to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain briefly.
Heat the marinara sauce over low heat in a saucepan while the ravioli finishes cooking.
Serve the ravioli hot, topped with warm marinara sauce, and garnish with additional Parmesan cheese or parsley, if desired.
