Ravioli And Spinach Supper Food

CREAMY SPINACH BAKED RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200ºC/390ºF.
• Sauté the onion in a splash of olive oil until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and spinach and cook until the spinach has wilted.
• Mix the milk and cornflour together. Pour the cream and milk mixture into the pan and allow to simmer gently until the sauce has thickened.
• Add the Parmesan and lemon juice then season to taste.
• Layer the creamy spinach sauce with the ravioli and cheese. Place in the oven and allow to bake for 10-15 minutes until the top is golden brown and the ravioli is heated through.
• Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes then serve.

BAKED SPINACH RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic and rosemary and cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and just starts browning, about 6 minutes.
• Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until smooth and bubbling, about 2 minutes. Stir in 2 cups water, the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Stir in the ravioli and cook, stirring occasionally, until the ravioli are tender and the sauce thickens, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove from the heat. Discard the rosemary sprigs and stir in the spinach. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and grana padano. Place the skillet under the broiler until golden and bubbling, about 5 minutes.

QUICK RAVIOLI & SPINACH SOUP

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the broth, onion powder and pepper; bring to a boil. Add ravioli; cook, uncovered, for 7-10 minutes or until tender. Add spinach and chicken during the last 3 minutes of cooking. If desired, serve with cheese.

EASY SPINACH RAVIOLI BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, stir together chopped spinach and pesto. In another medium bowl, combine Alfredo sauce and chicken broth.
• Spread a thin layer of sauce in the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with half the ravioli, half of the remaining Alfredo sauce, half of the spinach and half of the cheese. Repeat once. Top with Parmesan cheese.
• Cover and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly. Uncover and bake 5-10 minutes more, or until cheese is melted and golden.

RAVIOLI WITH SPINACH

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.
