- Place a heaped teaspoon of the boudin blanc mixture into the centre of 16 of the ravioli squares and top each with a sprig of sage.
- Brush the edges with a little beaten egg and place another pasta round on top. Using a fork press around the entire border to seal together the edges & create a scalloped effect.
