Sauce Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon Tomato Puree
  • 120 ml Chicken Stock
  • 240 ml Heavy Double Cream at room temp
  • 0.25 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon Dried Oregano

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat, then add the garlic and fry until it just begins to take on colour (be vigilant it doesn't burn). Stir in the tomato puree and fry for a minute or so.
  • Stir in the chicken stock, cream, smoked paprika and oregano alongside a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in the sun dried tomatoes, basil and parmesan then bring to a gentle simmer. Allow to bubble away until the sauce gets fairly thick, stirring somewhat frequently (about 5 minutes or so). Check for seasoning and adjust if needed, then stir in the spinach until it begins wilting.
  • Meanwhile, cook the ravioli in salted boiling water for 1 minute less than the packet suggests. Drain in a colander.
  • Stir the drained ravioli through the sauce until the sauce thickens up and clings to the ravioli. Serve up and enjoy!

Notes

Any type of chicken filling or mushroom-based filling works well for ravioli. You can also use tortellini or any type of stuffed pasta. Spinach should be added to the sauce when it's fairly thick.
