Upside Down Ravioli Food

EASY MOUTHWATERING BAKED RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
• Cook and stir ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until the meat is browned and crumbly, 8 to 10 minutes; stir in garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in diced tomatoes and mix in Italian seasoning and salt. Reduce heat to low and cook at a simmer, stirring occasionally, while you complete remaining steps.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, stir in frozen ravioli, and reduce heat to medium. Cook ravioli until tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain.
• Place half the ravioli into the bottom of the prepared baking dish and cover with layers of half the spinach, half the ground beef sauce, half the mozzarella cheese, half the Cheddar cheese, and 1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers once more and sprinkle top with remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Cover dish with foil.
• Bake in preheated oven until casserole is bubbling and cheese has melted, about 20 minutes.

RAVIOLI.... RAVIOLI REALLY HOMEMADE

Steps:

• Make the dough first, this can be done a day in advance. Before you use the dough, it needs to be at room temperature.
• First, brown the beef in a skillet and drain all the fat. Set aside to let cool.
• In a food processor add the garlic and onion chop very fine.
• Now add the cooked hamburger and process very fine. Add the cheese, parsley flakes, basil, oregano, salt and pepper; mix very well in the food process bowl. Refrigerate until ready for use.
• To make the dough for the ravioli, divide it into 8 pieces making sure the dough is stiff.
• Roll 1 piece at a time on a floured surface as thin as possible. If using a pasta machine or Kitchen-Aid pasta roller, roll it into 1/16 of an inch or so. (I have a Kitchen Aid pasta roller and this only takes 2-3 minutes for the bottom and the top pieces of the dough).
• Using a ravioli tray, add a little flour across the tray to keep them to sticking to the tray. Put the first piece of dough across and fill each ravioli with the mixture.
• Now put the second piece of the dough on top of the tray. Use a rolling pin to seal the sides of the ravioli. Flip the tray upside down and the ravioli will fall out.Seal with an egg mixture! (Now that is 1 egg and 1/4 cup milk wisked).
• To cook, bring to a boil 4-6 cups of water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.
• Boil for about 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with your favorite spaghetti sauce or try mine
• Recipe #106003.
• Option #2:.
• Sauté meat in butter. Season lightly with salt.
• Use meat grinder to process the meats. Add all the ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix until well-combined.
• Cover the filling and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
• Once the filling has rested, you can begin making your ravioli.

WONTON SKIN RAVIOLIS

Steps:

• Lay out 8 wonton wrappers on counter in front of you. Paint each one lightly with beaten egg. Place 1 tablespoon filling in the center of each ravioli. Seal by placing 8 additional wonton wrappers on top to cover each square. Pick up each ravioli and press well all around edges to seal. For a good seal, make sure no filling is stuck in the edges. Square ravioli can be left as is or cut into festive shapes (stars, hearts etc.) with a medium cookie cutter. Place the ravioli upside down on a cookie sheet lined with parchment. Lay out 8 more wrappers and repeat the process until either wrappers or filling is gone. Lay additional parchment or plastic wrap between layers of ravioli as needed as you lay them on the cookie sheet. The entire cookie sheet can be wrapped well and refrigerated for 1 to 2 days.
• When ready to cook ravioli, bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer, give the water a good stir to form a whirlpool effect and quickly drop in 12 to 15 raviolis one by one, stirring gently to separate them as they hit the water. Poach gently 2 to 3 minutes, or until ravioli puff up, float to the surface and are opaque in the center (in the case of raw poultry or fish fillings) Remove ravioli from pot with a slotted spoon and reserve. Cook remaining ravioli in same manner. Serve with sauce, butter, or oil, or in broth, and with or without cheese.

SPINACH AND RICOTTA RAVIOLI

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, stir together flours and salt. Make a well in the middle of the bowl by pushing the flour towards the sides.
• Pour lukewarm water and olive oil into the well. Mix with a wooden spoon until just combined.
• Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes to make a soft and smooth dough. Add more water if the dough is too dry OR add more flour if the dough is too sticky.
• Form the dough into a ball and cover in plastic wrap.
