    Pics of them cooked, would be good! What sauce are you serving them with? In Italy, it'd traditionally be ragu

    Haha, it was a joint effort with my mate Rob.

    They were filled on the basis of ‘using everything up! but actually worked out ok in the eating.

    Just had them with melted butter and black pepper and a grating of fresh parmesan. With a side salad. Only ate about 8 as we saving the rest for his wife and daughter when they get back from the event they’ve gone too.

    They were bloody delish I’d have to say. Nice little afternoon project while listening to music. We are off to see our sons (Nathe & Dan) playing at Notting Hill Arts Centre tonight.

    Nice one, mate (on all counts). What a fab way to spend a day, and the evening sounds none too shabby either!

    Just melted butter (as long as a good quality one is used), and cracked black pepper, is a great 'sauce' to have with fresh pasta. If you can, try using European, not British butter, as it's quite different (lighter and not as 'fatty' tasting, whiter in colour, too), something such as President would be fine.

    It works because you *really* taste the pasta that way. Next time, try it also with some fresh sage. 'Burro e Salvia', with ravioli, is a classic in Tuscany (the video's in Italian though, so you'll just need to look at the pics):



    I think you'd love it

    Marco.

    P.S You can also see the amount of filling you're supposed to use!

    Particularly good batch of Maris Piper. Potatoes can be a bit variable to say the least.

    That’s exactly the quantity I used, one teaspoon. Just looks bigger in the photos.

    Thanks for the video, it’s always good to see how the Nonnas do it. Was really instructive

    Have you tried that recipe before?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
