Use 15 g wheat flour to lightly dust the work surface and rolling pin, without forcing any residue into the dough. Roll to about 2 mm and cut 7 cm circles, gently re-rolling scraps. Divide all the filling to make 32 half-moons. Use 10 ml water to dampen the edges as needed, fold and press firmly to expel air and seal. Keep unused dough covered.

Meanwhile heat 45 g butter in a frying pan until nut-brown and fragrant, without burning. Lift out the ravioli with a slotted spoon, dress with brown butter, 20 g Parmesan and 1 tbsp chives and serve.
