This vibrant pea and Parmesan wonton ravioli offers a clever shortcut to homemade pasta without the need for a rolling machine. By using shop-bought wonton wrappers, you can create delicate, silken parcels filled with a bright, mint-scented pea purée. The sweetness of the peas pairs beautifully with the salty depth of the Parmigiano-Reggiano, creating a sophisticated vegetarian starter or main course that celebrates fresh, seasonal flavours.
Perfect for a quick midweek treat or an impressive dinner party dish, these ravioli are surprisingly light yet deeply satisfying.

Ingredients for Pea and Parmesan Wonton Ravioli
650ml frozen peas (350g )
80ml grated parmigiano-reggiano plus additional for serving
2 teaspoons chopped mint
About 64 dumpling or wonton wrappers
3/4 stick unsalted butter, melted
How to make Pea and Parmesan Wonton Ravioli
Cook peas in boiling salted water until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and cool, then purée in a food processor. Stir in cheese, mint, and 1/2 teaspoons each of salt and pepper.
Put a rounded teaspoon filling in centre of a wrapper. Lightly brush edge of wrapper with water, then place a second wrapper on top and seal, pressing out any trapped air. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling, keeping ravioli covered as you work.
Boil ravioli in 2 batches in a pasta pot of salted boiling water until tender, 2 to 3 minutes per batch, removing with a slotted spoon. Drizzle with butter and sprinkle with cheese and pepper.
