Preparation

Step 1

Cook the leek in the butter in a small sauté pan over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until translucent. Add the cream and cook for 2 minutes, or until it is completely absorbed. Set the leek aside to cool.

In a bowl, combine the leek with the ham and season to taste with pepper.

Lay 12 wonton skins on a flat surface and place a spoonful of the ham mixture in the center of each wonton. Brush the edges of the remaining 12 wonton skins with the egg and place them over the filling, egg-side down. Firmly press the edges of each ravioli together, removing any air pockets and completely sealing.

Cook the ravioli in boiling salted water for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they float. Remove the ravioli from the water with a slotted spoon and drain thoroughly in a colander.

This recipe yields 12 ravioli.
