Teaspoon Minced shallots  
Teaspoon Chopped garlic  
Cup Mashed potatoes  
Tablespoon Truffle oil  
Sheet Fresh pasta; cut 8 equal squares  
/4 Pound White potatoes; peeled and cubed  
Cup Chicken stock  
/2 Cup Heavy cream  
Ounce Parmesan cheese; shaved  
Black truffle; shaved for garnish  
Tablespoon Chopped chives  
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil.  
When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and saute for 2 minutes. Season with  
salt and pepper. Add the shallots and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Remove  
from the heat and turn into a mixing bowl. Combine the potatoes and 1  
tablespoon of the truffle oil with the mushroom mixture. Blend the mixture  
until smooth. Spoon 1/4 cup of the mushroom mixture in the center of one  
pasta square. With a little water, lightly wet the edge of the pasta square.  
Place one pasta square directly on top of the filled square and seal the  
edges very tightly, so the filling does not escape during poaching. In a  
saucepan, combine the cubed potatoes and stock, bring up to a boil. Season  
with salt and pepper. Reduce to a simmer and cook for about 30 minutes, or  
until the potatoes are fork tender. Using a hand−held blender, puree the  
mixture until smooth. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the  
remaining truffle oil and heavy cream. Re−season if needed. Poach the  
raviolis in the boiling water for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until they float  
to the surface and are tender. Remove the raviolis from the water and drain.  
Season the raviolis with salt and pepper. To serve, spoon the potato soup  
into a shallow bowl. Lay the raviolis in the center of the soup. Garnish  
with the shaved cheese, shaved truffles, and chives. This recipe yields 4  
servings.
