SAVOURY RAVIOLI FILLED WITH CHEESE AND SPINACH

Ingredients:
Dough: • 250 g shortening • 250 g all-purpose or fine flour • 250 g cheese • 2 eggs • 1 egg for glazing • 3 teaspoons salt
Filling: • 200 g cheese • 300 g spinach (broccoli or smoked salmon) • 1 clove of garlic • a pinch of salt and pepper

Preparation:
Work the dough thoroughly in a large bowl. You can combine all the ingredients at the same time. Leave the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Then roll on a rolling board (sprinkled with fl our), into a 2 mm sheet. Cut out circles from the sheet, and with a spoon add the filling in the middle of each one. The filling is made of spinach steamed with garlic. Remove the excess water from the spinach, and mix with cheese. (The salmon filling is made from cheese, salmon cut into small pieces, and chives). Glaze the edges of the circles with egg whites and fold in half. Press the edges firmly together so that they stick well and do not fall apart. There is a special ravioli cutter on the market that can do this job for you. Place the raviolis on the pizza stone layered with baking paper, and glaze with egg yolk. Bake in a pre-heated oven on the pizza stone, programmed to use „the hot air function together with the bottom heater“, for 20 mins at 180°C minutes.

BAKED POTATOES

•  4 mid-sized potatoes • 30 g ground pork •  2 spring onions • 30 g grated Emmental cheese • 4 table spoons cream • 4 table spoons olive oil • Salt and pepper (freshly ground) • Chive for garnish

Boil the unpeeled potatoes for about 6-7 minutes until semi-soft. Then cool them down and cut off an edge of the potato, remove the inside and fill in with the filling.
Filling:
Mix ground pork with the cut onion, cream, and grated cheese. Add salt and pepper. Drizzle potatoes with olive oil. Bake at 190°C in a pre-heated oven on a hot pizza stone programmed to „grill + convection“ for about 20 minutes.

BAKED STUFFED TROUT A LA SICILIANA 

(2 serves)

Ingredients:
• 2 mid-sized trout (2x250 g) •  10 g butter •  4 leaves wild garlic • Freshly ground salt • Aluminium foil to wrap the fish in
Side dish ingredients: • 8 asparagus stems • 50 g butter • Herbal salt • 2 cloves of garlic

Preparation:
Clean the fish, remove the scales with the edge of a knife, filet and clean. Rinse under running water and dry. Salt the fish lightly, and place the chopped garlic leaves and a knob of butter inside the belly.
Wrap the trout in the aluminium foil and seal both sides tightly. Bake in a pre-heated oven on the hot pizza stone, with the oven set to the “pizza” mode, or the classic “top and bottom heating elements + ventilation” mode at 195°C for 18 minutes. After cooking remove the foil, "advanced cooks" may remove the skin and spine with bones. Serve cleaned filets with a small amount of the juice left over from baking. For a side dish we recommend baked potatoes, chips, steamed white asparagus, or green salad which can contain finely chopped wild garlic – it is very healthy and tastes great.

Side dish preparation (White asparagus):
Peel off a thin layer of the white asparagus as this is very bitter (this is not necessary with green asparagus). Boil the asparagus in salted water for 6 minutes. Drain and sauté the stems in butter with the herbal salt. This side dish not only goes well with fish, but also with a steak or fried eggs.
