Place the meat in a large saucepan, add cold water to cover and bring to a boil. Cooking and gentle simmering are essential for a great meat stock.

Lower the heat and simmer for about 3 and 1/2 hours to 4 hours.
Remove from the heat, strain into a bowl and leave to cool.
Then chill in the refrigerator.
When the fat has solidified on the surface carefully remove and throw away.
Prepare the Ravioli in Broth:
Beat the ricotta with a wooden spoon until smooth.
-
- Stir in the egg, flour, nutmeg, and season with salt and pepper.
Shape the mixture into small ravioli the size of acorns.
Coat the ravioli lightly in flour.
Meanwhile, bring the meat stock to a boil over a low heat.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan.
-
- Add the ravioli and cook until light brown all over.
Drain on kitchen paper.
Put the ravioli into a soup bowl and ladle in the stock.
