Ingredients

1 pound sliced cooked ham, chopped
1 pound domestic Swiss cheese, sliced and chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon salt, plus more for cooking water
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
1 package square wonton wrappers
1 egg beaten with 2 tablespoons water, reserved in small bowl

Directions

Mix ham, cheese, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, eggs, and Parmesan in a medium bowl until well mixed.

On a dry cutting board, place 1 wonton wrapper. Use 3/4 to 1 teaspoon of filling and brush the edges of the wrapper with egg/water mixture. Place a second wonton wrapper on top and press edges to seal, pushing out any air bubbles. Use ravioli cutter to trim edges or leave in a square.

Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil. Add salt, to taste, after it begins to boil. Gently place ravioli into the water and return to a gentle boil until ravioli rise to the top, about 4 to 6 minutes. Use spider or slotted spoon to remove ravioli from the water and serve with your favorite gravy, or serve with butter and grated Parmesan. Enjoy!

Sooooo Tasty!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used the packaged ham in the gladware container from the deli section because I figured it would be stronger since it was... salted and cured. I also substituted the new laughing cow herbs n' cheese processed swiss chesse and that was it. I also tried boiling and frying them and they were excellent both ways! The cheese complimented the ham to perfection. It was not easy to make without a ravioli press though. So I got the idea to substitute cut up lasagna noodles and make it into a pasta and that was excellent as well! Great idea!Read more

Thought it was great with Arugula
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I thought the recipe was extremely easy and delicious. Instead of parsley, I used arugula (about a 1/2-3/4 of a bag). I... thought the arugula would be very tasty and it was...but since i never made it with the parsley, can't say for sure it is better...but I would guess it has more flavor. Since the meal was for two I made the recipe with an entire package of wonton wrappers, 1/2 pound of imported swiss (emmentaler), 1/2 pound of honey ham and arugula. Next time I might use a saltier/stronger ham for more ham flavor. I made it in two batches. The first night I tried to use the won tons as directed in the recipe (but without the ravioli press) and too much air was still stuck in the ravioli so some of them busted open and it was a bit watery. The next night I took the remaining filling and wrappers and wrapped them as if they were won tons/potstickers and really pushed out the air. Much more successful and really not difficult. It was really good the first night but not too pretty...the second night was a success. Both times I just poured a bit of melted butter and sprinkled a bunch of shredded parm on top.I will try it again with a ravioli press some time soon when I can find one.Read more

I really enjoyed this recipe. My package of wontons did not make nearly enough however so I had a lot of filling left over.... This is easy for a beginner though.Read more

time consuming but worth it!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I made these for my husband who is a very picky and quite experienced eater and he loved them. They took some time to make... and it made enough to feed us all week. But the end result was very tasty. I pan fried them for a minute in garlic butter, YUM! YUM! They are worth a try.Read more

Terrific with changes
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I too followed the recipe the first time. I cut the recipe to 1/4 batch for two. I still had scads of filling left over. I... also had leftover ravioli. The filling was yummy, but the rest was bland. I still had 8 raviolis for the next day. I cheated and used jarred Alfredo sauce and sprinkled the left over filling amongst the sauce. It turned into a very flavorful dish done in this manner.Read more
