 No Name Ravioli | Status Approved | | Name |  No Name Ravioli | | Category | Pasta, American, European | | Serves/Yields | 2-4 servings | | Source | Kate's own | | Difficulty | Easy | | Prep. Time | 10 minutes | | Cook Time | 15-20 minutes | | Introduction | | A neighbor asked me the other day how I create a recipe. I really didn't know how to respond, it just sort of comes to me. Unfortunately I don't always write down what I did when I created a recipe, and then I forget. I created a really tasty pasta dish tonight, born out of hunger and lack of energy to go to the grocery store. I had a package of ravioli in the freezer. Name it? I'll do that later. Any suggestions?
| | Ingredients | | 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup butter
2 tsps capers , unrinsed
Chiffonade of basil , about 8 leaves
Few grinds black pepper
1/4 cup ricotta_salata -OR-,Cotija Cheese grated
1/4 cup parmesan_cheese, grated
1/2 tsp anchovy_paste
2 garlic_cloves , crushed
1 package cheese ravioli-fresh or frozen
| | Directions | | Step: 1 | In a large skillet, melt butter and olive oil. Add garlic and cook until garlic is slightly brown and butter is fragrant. Remove and discard the crushed garlic cloves.

Add a small handfull of sea salt (prefferably coarse). Add ravioli and cook according to package directions. When ravioli are al dente,add a little of the water to the butter sauce, about 1/4 cup. Drain ravioli and add to the butter sauce.Turn up the heat to medium and add the basil and cheeses. Stir to coat each ravioli. |

(User Info | Send a Message) | Capers, ricotta salata, and extra virgin olive oil remind me of Sicily.
I'd go with Regaleali bianco.
Made with Inzolia Cataratto and Grecanico, it's a very versatile white wine. |
