An unexpected invitation to a "Carnival" lunch at Chiara's today and these are some of the delights which she served: first of all you can see her mother's freshly made spinach and ricotta ravioli and then Modican "sweet" ravioli [containing ricotta and honey] waiting to be cooked; next the finished versions of both; and a main dish of meltingly tender pork cooked with sausage. For dessert there was fresh fruit and panettone, which made it seem like Christmas all over again!
Ravioli one of my favourites!!!not sure about sweet ravioli but would give it a try..
ReplyDeleteHi, Anne. I assure you the sweet ravioli taste heavenly!
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteThe best ravioli I had was at a little Mom & Pop sort of restaurant in Roma. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. We went back there for our last dinner before everyone went their separate ways because the food was so good. Now I've never had that sweet variety, but I'm willing! lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice surprise. An invite to lunch is always welcome and the food looks great as usual.
ReplyDeleteCarnival lunch - it won't turn into an orgy now, will it?
ReplyDeleteLooks absolutely delicious!
ReplyDelete:)
You eat so well!
ReplyDeleteAlthough you enjoy cooking I am sure like me you love to sit down to a meal someone else has prepared. Fresh pasta, delicious.
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous, particularly compared to sandwich shops in Bournemouth
ReplyDeleteHi, Sean. Sure you'd love it! Ciao, Leslie. WHEN - not "if" - you come here, you will try the "sweet" ravioli! Hi, jmb. Yes, I love unexpected invitations like that and Chiara is a superb cook. James - you never know! Thanks, Ardent. We do indeed here, kissa! MM,yes, I adore it when someone cooks for ME! WW, coming over to find out how the new job is going...
ReplyDeleteI do like Ravioli.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, it's easy to prepare- or at least, it is when you buy it in a tin.
Probably not quite up to this standard, though.
Hi,Crushed. These freshly prepared ravioli are out of this world!
