Ravioli in Spinach Alfredo Sauce image

A 4-ingredient recipe that is so-o simple to put together. A jar of Alfredo sauce is called for; but if you prefer, you can make your own. The recipe is included and is really simple to do. Note that Bird's Eye makes a creamed spinach that is much lower in fat content than is the Stouffer creamed spinach. This recipe is from Linda Larson at About.com.

RAVIOLI WITH SPINACH



Ravioli With Spinach image

My aunt would save leftover meat in the freezer until she had enough to make the filling. The dough should be made a day in advance, and the filling and the sauce can be made then. Allow about 2 hours to assemble and plan on putting them together several hours before cooking so they have time to dry.

Time 1h

Yield Six to eight servings as antipasto, about 100 ravioli

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 to 3 1/2 cups sifted flour
2 large eggs mixed with 1/2 cup water
2 1/2 cups of cooked, finely chopped meat, such as turkey, chicken, veal and beef, including at least one pork chop
1 egg, lightly beaten
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 package (10 ounces) frozen spinach, cooked, well-drained and chopped

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir 3 or 4 tablespoons of flour into the egg-and-water mixture. Place the 3 cups of flour on a working surface and make a well in the center. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the well, working the liquid into the flour as you go. Knead for at least 15 minutes. The dough should be so stiff that when you poke it with your finger it doesn't bounce back immediately. If the dough is still sticky, add some of the remaining flour as needed.
  • Cut the dough into two pieces, wrap in plastic wrap and chill overnight in the refrigerator.
  • In a large bowl, mix the meats with the egg. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a small saute pan, heat the 2 teaspoons of olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and saute until soft. Add the well-drained, well-chopped cooked spinach and cook for a few minutes. Add the spinach mixture to the meat mixture and combine well.
  • To assemble the ravioli, using a rolling pin or pasta machine, roll out one of the halves of dough as thin as possible on a well-floured board. (Refrigerate the remaining dough until ready to use.) This should be almost paper thin; the thinner the ravioli, the better. Leaving a 2-inch strip of dough at the top, place a rounded half-teaspoon of filling at 1-inch intervals across the dough.
  • Fold the strip over; on the unfolded sides, cut around each mound of filling with a small, serrated pastry wheel. If the ravioli do not stay closed, moisten your finger with milk and press the edges together. Place on a clean, lightly floured dish towel while you make the rest of the ravioli.
  • Continue in the same manner until the dough is used up. The ravioli should rest uncovered at room temperature for several hours before cooking. Turn them once during this time.
  • Fill two large pots with about 5 quarts of salted water each. Bring to the boil. Place the ravioli gently in the pots and cook at a full boil for 10 to 15 minutes. When done, skim them from the pot with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander. Slide them onto a platter and serve with tomato sauce and grated Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • To make the filling, finely chop the spinach and ricotta cheese. Mix them together in a bowl with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. For a richer filling, add a tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese.
  • When assembling the ravioli, place a spoonful of the filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, then press the edges together to seal. If the wonton wrappers are too dry to seal, brush them with a little water before folding.
  • To make the sugo sauce, heat some olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, and oregano. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • To cook the ravioli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the top. Remove the ravioli from the pot with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels.
  • To serve, place the ravioli on a plate and top with the sugo sauce. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and garnish with basil leaves.

Conclusion:

Spinach and three-cheese ravioli with sugo sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The spinach and ricotta filling is rich and flavorful, and the sugo sauce is tangy and aromatic. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
