Ravioli with scallops in fennel sauce



Yesterday M. asked me to make some ravioli filled with scallops : not so easy really.Scallops are very delicate in savour & you must py attention not to overcook them also .I slept over it and this morning when I woke up I had the recipe in my mind :scallops are just tender and juicy , the dough as a neutral taste , not to overwhelm the filling and the fennel sauce so light . I think it makes a wonderful entrée for a refined dinner ( in this case 2 or 3 ravioli each would be enough )

Ingredients for 16 ravioli
The dough :


140 gr of white flour

60 gr of rice flour


Water


The scallops


16 scallops ( very fresh ! )


10 gr of butter

1 spoon of extra-virgin-olive oil


1 spoon of pastis


2 leaves of algue ( dulse )


The sauce


1 big fennel

1 spoon of extra-virgin-olive oil


1 csp of  fleur de sel


Pinch of safran


Pinch of  ground Piment d’Espelette ( pay attention if you find a very strong one)


Pinch of wild fennel seeds
