Need a recipe for Mafalde alla Fiorentina (with mafalde pasta, raisins, ricotta, cinnamon, spinach, pine nuts)?
I have searched the web, and found only restaurants which serve it, or a general list of ingredients, but no real recipe. I'm looking for a step-by-step recipe which includes the quantities for each ingredient.

Try this maybe....
Ingredients
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
500 g fresh spinach, chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
120 g ricotta cheese
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
15 g pine nuts, toasted
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable stock, powdered (optional)
1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
Directions
1Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion on a gentle heat until soft but not browned.
2Add the thyme, garlic (if using) and spinach.
3Continue to cook on low heat until the spinach leaves have wilted, approximately 2-3 minutes. If you're spinach was very wet and there is a lot of water in the pan, drain some off otherwise the sauce will be very runny. If you're not sure drain it into a separate bowl you can always add some later if you feel it's too thick.
4Add the ricotta cheese and mix, using a wooden spoon, until it forms a smooth sauce.
5Season, using nutmeg (I use more than stated above, but then I really like nutmeg), salt, freshly ground pepper and powdered vegetable stock to taste.
6Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and serve straight away on your favourite pasta.
You cant search for the type of pasta you must search for the sauce.
I will add a cpl more links also.
