Master Class

Regional Italian Classics

A creative, contemporary approach

Matteo captures your imagination with his modern twist on regional Italian fare. Using the best of the season’s produce, he will show you how to make a feast that is bound to impress: local Koo Wee Rup asparagus sautéed in olive oil, served with parmesan cheese, smoked egg yolk and pepper pangrattato (breadcrumbs seasoned with pepper); ravioli di spinaci con burro, a favourite regional ravioli with a spinach and ricotta filling, tossed in a burnt butter, lemon zest and nutmeg sauce; abbacchio alla Romana, wet roasted suckling lamb cooked in tomatoes, parmigiano, fresh herbs and white wine, served with utterly delicious rosemary roasted potato wedges; and to finish, a surprise spring dessert.
