Italian special - Cheese Ravioli in Pink Sauce

Cheese Ravioli in Pink Sauce

Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: serves 4 - 6 people

Ingredients:

• 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed

• 2 shallots, chopped

• ½ tsp kosher salt

• ½ tsp chilli flakes

• 1 (13-oz) package cheese ravioli

• ½ cup dry white wine, such as pinot grigio

• 1 cup tomato puree/ sauce

• ⅓ cup heavy cream, room temperature

• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan

• ½ cup fresh basil, chopped

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, shallots and salt. Cook, stirring often, until the shallots are beginning to turn golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the chilli flakes and cook an additional 2 minutes.

3. Add the ravioli to the boiling water and cook for 7 minutes, or 2 minutes less than package instructions.

4. Meanwhile, add the wine to the pan with the shallot mixture and reduce by half, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato puree and cream and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Using a slotted spoon or spider, remove the ravioli from the water and add them straight to the skillet. Before stirring, sprinkle with 3/4 cup of the Parmesan. Stir the ravioli into the sauce.

5. Top with the basil and the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan before serving.

ENJOY!!!
