Notes
Expert Tips
- Fresh ravioli always tastes best in any recipe. But if you are in a pinch, feel free to use store-bought/frozen ravioli. Follow the package instructions to cook the ravioli.
- Ravioli stuffed with a combination of cheeses, cream cheese, ricotta cheese, basil pesto, sauteed/blanched spinach, meat such as beef/pork/chicken, lobster, crab, prawns/shrimp, pumpkin, butternut squash, mushrooms, etc. These stuffings complement well with the sauce.
- To make this sauce creamy, add a splash of heavy cream. Add some freshly grated parmesan when simmering the sauce to enhance the taste.
- If the sauce gets too thick as it cools, it can be thinned down using a couple of tablespoons of stock or water and simmered for a few minutes on the stovetop or warmed up in a microwave.
- Make-ahead and Storage Instructions: This ravioli dish can be easily made ahead of time. Any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for 5-7 days and in the freezer for up to a month. Ravioli can be reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of water or stock.
- Serving suggestion: A side of salad such as this protein-packed Kale Salad and bread such as rosemary garlic focaccia goes well with a plate of ravioli.
