Roasted Butternut Squash Ravioli Recipes

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.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Make the butternut squash puree. Split the squash down the middle and scrape out the seeds. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and roast at 400ºF for 45 minutes to one hour. Remove the skin from the roasted squash and beat until smooth.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan until just starting to brown. Add the shallots and cook for one minute, until starting to soften.
• Add the squash puree and cook until dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cream and cook for another 2 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the cheese and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Roll the pasta dough out as thin as possible, until you can see through it, into long strips. Use a pastry bag, or zip lock bag with the corner cut out, to pipe the filling. Put 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of the dough, and space them a couple of inches apart in a line.
• Brush a beaten egg on all edges of the pasta dough, and in-between each of the filling mounds. Fold the pasta strip in half, from bottom to top, so that the filling now sits at the bottom. Use your fingers to press as much air as possible out from between ravioli so that they won't burst open while cooking. Use a round cookie cutter to cut the ravioli. Press the edges together well to ensure the ravioli are sealed.
• Cook the ravioli in batches until they boil.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a frying pan until browned. Add the cooked ravioli and lightly pan fry, then place on a plate. Top with roma tomato sauce, toasted pecans, crumbled chevre goat cheese and freshly mined basil.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI WITH BROWN BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Rub squash down with 1 tablespoon olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Cut the tops off of each clove of garlic, rub with oil, and wrap in foil. Place on the baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until squash and garlic cloves are soft and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Remove squash and garlic from the oven. Remove the garlic skin and transfer to the bowl of a food processor. Add squash along with ricotta, grated Parmesan, brown sugar, and salt for filling. Blend into a thick paste. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and set in the refrigerator until cool.
• While squash is roasting, whisk semolina, all-purpose flour, and salt for pasta together in a bowl. Dump onto a counter and push flour into a mound. Dig a well in the center. Crack eggs into the well and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Start folding flour and egg onto each other; continue kneading and folding until it comes together as a dough. Add more flour or oil if it is too wet or dry, respectively. The final product should look smooth, and the dough should bounce back if you press your thumb into it. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
• If you have a pasta maker, pass the pasta through to make a pasta sheet about the thickness of a dime. If not, get to work with a roller on a lightly floured surface. Make several sheets.
• On one sheet, dollop about 2 tablespoons of squash filling 2 inches apart. Place another sheet over top and press the dough down around each lump of filling. Try to keep it tight, as you don't want a lot of air in the interior. But don't go too close, or you'll have filling trapped between pasta layers and ruin the seal. Use a ravioli stamp to stamp out and seal each ravioli. Set aside.
• In another pan, heat a thin layer of canola oil over medium heat. Working in batches, fry sage leaves until dark green and crispy. Remove to paper towel-lined plate to strain grease. Set aside.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; simmer, stirring frequently, until browned, fragrant, and foamy, with brown bits in it, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in tarragon, thyme, and salt.
• While sauce is being prepared, bring a pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add raviolis and boil until they float, about 5 minutes. Drain and plate.
• Ladle butter sauce over pasta and garnish with fried sage. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

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!

EASY BUTTERNUT SQUASH RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Place cooked squash into a mixing bowl. Add salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir in mascarpone cheese, egg yolk, and 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, mixing until the filling is smoothly combined.
• Place a wonton wrapper onto a working surface. Wet the tip of a finger in water, and run it all along the outer edge of the wonton skin to moisten. Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of the wonton. Fold the wonton in half to make a half-moon shape, and press the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers.
• Place a deep skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in butter and unpeeled clove of garlic. Meanwhile, bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Drop the filled raviolis into the boiling water, a few at a time, and cook until they float to the top, about 2 minutes. Drain the raviolis, and transfer them to the skillet. Turn the heat under the skillet up to medium-high, and cook just until the raviolis are infused with garlic flavor, about 2 or 3 more minutes. Sprinkle with chopped sage, more black pepper, and extra Parmesan cheese to taste.

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.
