is no longer runny. Using your hands, draw in enough flour to make a smooth dough. Knead until dough is smooth
and elastic. Wrap dough tightly in plastic wrap and allow to rest for 2 to 3 hours.
Cut dough into 3 pieces. Pass through a pasta machine until dough is 1/8-inch thick. Cut sheets into 4-inch
circles using a cookie cutter. Keep covered with plastic wrap until ready to use.
To make the filling, heat a pan on medium heat and saute the Maui onions with the extra-virgin olive oil until
golden. Remove from the heat and carefully add the Cognac. Return the pan to the heat and flambe. Add the veal
jus or stock and cook for an additional 20 minutes on low heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool
completely.
In a bowl, beat egg and incorporate the Parmesan cheese, goat cheese, caramelized onions and season with salt
and pepper.
Take out pasta circles and scoop 2 tablespoons of filling into the center. Brush edges of pasta with egg
white. Cover the pasta circle with another pasta circle to cover filling and press carefully around the
edges.
Bring a pot of water and salt to a boil, drop the pasta in the water, and cook for 3 minutes.

few minutes.
Drain the pasta and add to the sauce.
To serve pasta, divide among 4 separate plates and distribute the porcini and tomato sauce around pasta.
Drizzle a few drops of basil oil around plate and top with pecorino shavings.
