Instructions:

Make a firm pasta dough with flour, eggs, water, oil, salt and nutmeg. Knead the dough well, wrap in plastic wrap and rest in the refrigerator for a few hours.

In the meantime, for the filling, rinse and clean the spinach leaves and blanch them in salted water. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water. Finely chop the spinach. Cut blue cheese into fine cubes and mix with the spinach leaves.

Roll out the pasta dough thinly, divide into rectangles and brush with beaten egg white. Spread the filling evenly on it, wrap the dough, cut into rectangles and press the ends firmly with a fork. Cook in boiling salted water for about 12 minutes.

For the sauce, cut spring leek into slices and sauté in clarified butter. Blanch tomatoes briefly, remove skins, cut into quarters, remove seeds and cut flesh into fine cubes. Add half of the diced tomatoes to the spring leek, sauté and add white wine and whipping cream. Boil down and season with salt and pepper from the mill.

Spread the sauce evenly on the plates and place the ravioli on top. Sprinkle with the remaining diced tomatoes and a few basil leaves and bring to the table.

Tip: Did you know that one bowl of spinach already covers the entire daily requirement of vitamin K and beta-carotene?
