Istruzioni

1
Filling: Debone the two quails to obtain four breasts and four thighs. Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan and brown the quails for about 3-4 minutes per side, then blend with the robiola cheese, boiled carrot, and a tablespoon of oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 1
2
Quail stock: Brown the quail carcasses without fat until well golden. Separately, sauté roughly chopped carrots and shallots and add them to the quail. Cover with cold chicken broth and cook for 2 hours over low heat. Strain the broth and return to the heat until reduced by ⅛. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter.
Step 2
3
Ravioli: Roll out the pasta very thinly and cut into circles. Pipe the filling into a circle, place a quail egg yolk in the center, cover with another pasta disc, and seal the edges well.
Step 3
4
Cook the ravioli in boiling water for 2 minutes. Plate with the quail jus and shaved and grated Black Truffle.
Step 4
Enjoy your exquisite meal!

Note

To make this culinary experience even more memorable, pair the dish with a glass of aromatic white wine such as a Sauvignon Blanc. The freshness and acidity of the wine will perfectly balance the creaminess of the walnut cream and the intensity of the truffle.
