Method

1. Run the pasta dough through a pasta machine to create large rectangular shape, about 60cm in length.

2. Remove the meat from the lobster, cut into small pieces and place in a bowl.

3. Stir in the mascarpone, parsley and nettles and then season with nutmeg, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well until smooth.

4. Place teaspoons of the lobster mixture on the dough about 4cm apart, brush in between each filling with the beaten egg then place the second pasta sheet on top.

5. Press along the edges of each filling and then with a pastry wheel, cut into squares to create a ravioli shape.

6. Cook the ravioli in plenty of boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes.

7. In the meantime, melt the butter in a frying pan and then add the sage leaves. Cook over a gentle heat for 2 minutes.

8. Drain the pasta, place 3 ravioli on each plate, drizzle over the sage butter, and serve immediately.
