For the recipe of ravioli di magro with mint goat cheese sauce, scald the spinach for 1 minute in boiling salted water, drain, squeeze carefully and whisk with eggs, egg yolks and a drizzle of oil. Work them with the flour, until you get a homogeneous paste; shape it into a ball, cover it with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Flour the work surface and roll the dough, obtaining a long rectangular sheet about 10-12 cm wide and 1 mm thick.
FOR THE FILLING: Dry the ricotta by laying it on kitchen paper. Peel the herbs, blanch them for a few seconds and squeeze them. Chop up a dozen mint leaves. Mix the ricotta with the grated Parmesan, the herbs and the mint, adjusting with salt and pepper.
FOR THE SEASONING: Mix the goat cheese with 3-4 tablespoons of milk, a pinch of salt, freshly ground pepper and some chopped mint leaves. Peel the chicory and sauté in a large pan with a knob of butter, the crushed garlic clove with the peel and a pinch of salt for a couple of minutes.
Prepare the ravioli: distribute small filling nuts in the upper part of the dough, at a distance of about 5 cm from each other. Brush the pastry with a little water all around the filling. Cover the filling with the lower part of the pastry and let it adhere well, crushing it around the filling to remove the air. Cut the ravioli with a pastry cutter with a serrated edge. Cook them in salted boiling water, until they come to the surface; drain and let them cook for 1 minute in the pan with the chicory, stirring gently. Serve the ravioli with the chicory, mint leaves and goat cheese sauce.
