Roasted Butternut Squash And Sausage Ragout Ravioli Food

EASY BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425˚F (220˚C).
• Add the diced butternut squash, chopped onion, whole garlic cloves, olive oil, salt, and pepper to a baking sheet, tossing until fully coated.
• Bake until the squash is golden brown and tender, about 30 minutes.
• While the squash is in the oven, make the dough.
• When the squash is finished cooking, add it to the food processor along with the brown sugar and Parmesan cheese. Pulse until it becomes smooth. Set aside to chill.
• Rinse the bowl of the food processor.
• To the bowl of a food processor, add the flour, eggs, and olive oil, and pulse until the dough comes together into a large ball and swirls around the processor.
• Remove the dough, wrap in plastic wrap, and rest it the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Cut 2 ounces (55 g) of pasta dough from the ball and roll out into large, wide, thin sheets of pasta.
• Lay a sheet over an empty ice cube tray, and press the dough down gently into each of the holes.
• Fill each hole with a tablespoon of the butternut squash filling. Place a second sheet on top of the ice cube tray. Press down on all the sides of the raviolis. Flip the ice cup tray over to release the pasta and cut off any excess dough.
• Separate each ravioli with a knife or cutting tool.
• Gently place a few raviolis into boiling salted water and cook until the raviolis float and firm up slightly, 2-3 minutes. Scoop out the ravioli and set aside briefly to cook a new batch or dump out the water and start the hazelnut brown butter sauce.
• In a pan, add 3 tablespoons of the butter, sage leaves, and hazelnuts. Cook until the butter browns deeply, the nuts are heated through, and the sage is fried and crispy. Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice and season to taste.
• Swirl in 2 more tablespoons more of chilled butter, to thicken the sauce. Add the cooked raviolis back in and toss gently to coat the pasta.
• Serve the pasta with brown butter sauce.
• Enjoy!

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Roast the squash. Cut the squash in half vertically and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Drizzle with olive oil and pinches of salt and pepper and place cut side-down on the baking sheet. Prick the skin several times with a fork and roast for 40 minutes. Wrap the shallot, garlic cloves, and sage in a piece of foil with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. After roasting, let the squash, shallots, garlic, and sage cool for at least 30 minutes.
• Make the pasta dough according to this recipe. Wrap the dough ball in plastic wrap and set aside to rest while you make the filling.
• Make the filling. Pulse the walnuts in a food processor until very finely ground. Add the cooked shallot, garlic, and sage to the food processor. Measure 1½ packed cups of the squash, and transfer to the food processor. Add the vinegar, nutmeg, salt, and pepper and pulse until very smooth. Chill until ready to use.
• Roll out the pasta according to the instructions in this recipe, skipping step 5 (the folding) and stopping after step 6 (after the sheets of pasta; before they get cut into strands). Spread the 4 pasta sheets on a well-floured work surface. Use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the filling onto 2 of the pasta sheets (the spacing will depend on the size of your ravioli stamp). Place the remaining pasta sheets over the sheets that are dotted with filling. Gently press the dough around the filling to seal. Use a ravioli stamp or cutter to cut out ravioli shapes. Cook the ravioli in a pot of salted boiling water for 4 minutes. I like to drop them into the water as I'm ready to start my sauce so that they're done around the same time.
• Make the sauce. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sage and cook for 3 minutes. Add the wine, thyme, and salt and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
• Spoon the sauce over the ravioli and top with the walnuts and freshly ground black pepper. Add the roasted butternut squash cubes, sautéed kale, and grated pecorino, if desired.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SAUSAGE RAGOUT & RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Clean, peel and cube the butternut squash into bite size pieces. Place in baking dish and lightly coat with 2 Tbs olive oil, salt & pepper. Roast at 350 covered until soft (about 40 minutes). Once soft, remove foil and continue baking until light golden brown edges appear.
• When the squash is almost done roasting:.
• Sauté the chopped red onion and zucchini in 2 Tbs olive oil, season with salt & pepper, set aside.
• Chop asparagus into bite size pieces and steam lightly, set aside.
• Cook bacon and chop finely. Saute with loose sausage (if buying sausages, just squeeze out of the casing).
• I used a Sicilian chicken sausage. When sausage is almost cooked all the way through, add ¾ cup of chicken broth and set to high. Add zucchini, onion, kidney beans and rosemary. Continue to cook on high until about half of the liquid has cooked off. Add butternut squash and Guinness. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Set to low, and let simmer.
• Bring 6 cups of water to boil and place ravioli in boiling water. Allow to cook until tender (about 5 minutes).
• Heat the alfredo sauce on medium heat until warmed.
• Just before serving, stir in the lightly steamed asparagus. Serve the ravioli over the ragout, top lightly with crème sauce & balsamic reduction drizzle.
• I served with a green salad tossed with goat cheese, raspberries, walnuts and a champagne vinaigrette.
• Very easily made vegetarian by omitting bacon, sausage and using vegetable broth.
• Low carb version - omit the ravioli.

Remove from the heat and stir in 3 tablespoons cheese and nutmeg, to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Cool completely.
• Cut the pasta ribbons into 3-inch squares. Place 2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of each pasta square. Bring 1 corner of the square to the other, forming a triangle and seal the pasta completely. Add the pasta to pot of boiling salted water. Cook until al dente, about 2 to 3 minutes or until the pasta floats and is pale in color.
• Remove the pasta from the water and drain well. Season the pasta with salt and pepper.
• In a large saute pan, melt the remaining 8 tablespoons of butter. Add the sage to the butter and continue to cook until the butter starts to brown. Remove from the heat.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI

Steps:

• For the squash filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roast the squash, about 1 hour 15 minutes, and then deseed and scoop out the flesh. Puree the flesh in a food processor.
• Preheat the broiler. Roast the poblano peppers until charred on the outside, and then peel, deseed and chop.
• Saute the collards with the onions and vinegar, sprinkle with salt and white pepper, and cook until tender. Drain, and then mix with the squash, poblano peppers, cream cheese and nutmeg.
• For the pasta: Combine the flour, whole-wheat flour, salt, egg yolks and whole eggs in a food processor or by hand until a dough forms. Knead the dough until it's smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, and then wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• For the fontina veloute sauce: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until soft. Stir in the flour and make a light roux by slowly adding the stock, and then slowly adding the cream, stirring constantly. Lower the temperature and add the fontina and Parmesan a little at a time, stirring continuously. Sprinkle with salt and white pepper.
• For assembling: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Roll out the pasta dough to desired thickness using a rolling pin or pasta machine. Stuff the dough with the squash filling using a large ravioli mold, wetting the seams before sealing. Poach the ravioli in the boiling water until they float, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Serve the ravioli topped with the fontina veloute sauce and garnish with chopped chives.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH SAGE, HAZELNUT AND BROWN BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place squash on a baking sheet and roast until soft 30 to 40 minutes. Scoop out flesh and run though a food mill. Place the puree into a medium saucepan and cook over low heat until almost dry. Add the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste. Lay a sheet of pasta dough on a lightly floured work surface and distribute a heaping teaspoon-sized portion of the filling at least 2 inches apart. Use your fingertip or a brush to moisten the edges of the pasta sheet with the egg wash. Carefully place a second sheet of the pasta dough on top of the first and press with your fingertips to separate the rows of filling. Repeat with the remaining dough. With a ravioli cutter or pastry wheel, cut along straight lines on the vertical and horizontal to form each ravioli square. Press the edges closed with your fingertips to seal well. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop in the ravioli and cook for about 5 minutes. Drain, plate and spoon butter sauce over and garnish with finely chopped chives.
• Melt butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat and cook until the foam subsides and the butter begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the hazelnuts and sage and season with salt and pepper to taste.
