Turn shop bought Ravioli into something AMAZING!

Upgrade that store-bought ravioli to something you'd get at a restaurant with this rich and creamy tomato ravioli sauce with spinach and parmesan. You can get it on the table in 15 minutes, and best of all, you can make it all in one pan.

This is perfect comfort food for busy weeknights!

Ingredients:
▢1 tbsp olive oil
▢1 onion - finely diced
▢2 cloves garlic - peeled and minced
▢500 g (1.1lb) fresh ravioli - (use your favourite flavour)
▢1 red bell pepper - sliced
▢½ tsp Italian herbs
▢½ tsp chilli flakes (red pepper flakes)
▢½ tsp black pepper
▢a pinch salt
▢1 tbsp tomato puree (paste if you're in the US)
▢90 ml (⅓ cup) white wine
▢100 g (3 ½ oz) roasted cherry tomato halves - (you can buy these from the deli counter)
▢120 ml (½ cup) chicken stock
▢90 ml (⅓ cup) double (heavy) cream
▢90 g (3 packed cups) baby spinach
▢50 g (½ cup) parmesan - grated
▢1 tbsp fresh parsley - finely chopped

Instructions:
1. Add the 1 tbsp of olive oil to a large frying pan (or skillet) and heat over a medium heat, then add in the finely diced onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until the onion starts to soften.

2. Add in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds stirring continuously.

3. Now add in the ravioli and the sliced red bell pepper and cook for another minute, stirring a few times.

4. Add in the Italian herbs, chilli flakes, black pepper and a pinch of salt, give it a stir then add in the tomato puree and wine, stir again, and cook for another minute to reduce the wine down slightly.

5. Add in the roasted tomatoes, chicken stock and cream. Stir everything together and bring up to a simmer. Allow to simmer for 5-6 minutes, until the centre of the ravioli is piping hot (you can open one up to check this).

6. Add in the spinach and parmesan and cook for a minute to allow the cheese to melt and the spinach to wilt.

7. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.

Don't want to use wine? Replace the wine with more chicken stock plus a teaspoon of lemon juice.

I made this last night with roasted duck ravioli. I just wanted to thank you for a new family favourite. This was outstanding. I drank champagne too while I was cooking it. Amazing.

Made this today but with shop bought spinach & cheese ravioli, and as advised substituted the white wine with half a chicken stock and lemon juice. My husband ended up eating 2 plate full! Barely leaving enough for me and my kids! 😡 and then rated it 12/10! He’s never in almost 6 years of marriage complimented my food before loool

Hi Nicky, just made this last night for my husband and myself for dinner and it is now one of my favorite easy go too meals. He his not a great lover of cooked tomatoes, so left them out and just added a little more paste instead. Had it with osso bucco filled ravioli. Would even serve it with boiled pasta stirred through the sauce. Had a smaller amount of leftovers which I reheated for lunch today (even better next day) Yum.

Tried this today, it was delicious! I never had ravioli before, it paired really well with the sauce. I can imagine something like tortellini would work as well. Only advice I can give to others is to not be stubborn and use a wide pan like she does. I used a soup pan (I don't know why either 😅) and it made stirring more difficult, causing a few parm coated raviolis to get burned to the bottom. Fortunately, the rest was still good.

I’ve had my eye on this recipe for a long time now but finally made it tonight for my wife…she truly was blown away with it..many thanks for posting..🤓👍

I used to love cooking from scratch but since I've had a few bereavements in the last few years I haven't enjoyed my cooking.
I haven't tried ravioli since I was a kid and I think it was out of a tin which I didn't like. Having seen the ravioli in shops I really fancy trying it and your recipe looks really nice. I think I'm going to have start making my food from scratch again and start enjoying my cooking again and trying different recipes again.

I just made this. I roasted my red peppers and tomatoes together. It turned out so so delicious! Only our Ravioli has a 3 min cooking time so in future I'll add it last. Love your recipes. I've tried quite a few by now. Next... Yorkshire puddings

Have cooked this recipe twice now with ricotta and spinach ravioli. My husband cannot get enough. Delicious. Thank you.

[davidfoster]

Reminds me of Lego !

Superbly clear, detailed and precise instructions .

Looks absolutely delicious.

[rachellesosu]

I made this last night and it was absolutely delicious with Italian sausage and lobster ravioli! Definitely adding this to my meal prep rotation.

[DerBomster]

Just made it and it worked like a charm - that sauce is really lovely and I imagine it'll go with about anything! Definitly entering my range of regular dishes!

[davidseamans]

Love your work. As an older single guy, I have to adjust meal quantities down. I am experimenting with the Cuisinart Griddler with the Deep Pan attachment. I think this recipe will work a treat. Thanks from Australia.

[chillisauce]

Not keen on peppers cooked like this so gonna switch out for the chargrilled ones out of a jar 👍🏻🌶

[liisr]

Finally found to U.K. food channel ! Loving everything I’ve seen so far ! Keep up the good job

I mean, nobody wants to admit they ate nine cans of ravioli, but I did, and I'm ashamed of myself.

[Dr.Nagyonfaj]

I made this today - and it was sensational. What I love so much is how adaptable it is to one's taste. ♥

[katbar]

WOW and Thanks! That is just brilliant. I love Ravioli and my husband loves a creamy sauce so we will both enjoy it tonight for Dinner as we have everything we need but had no idea what we wanted to eat until this video popped up.

[georgGeiloMat]

Absolutely genius this meal! As you said - Restaurant style, still so quick to cook <3 thank you so much for this recipe!

[tulinfirenze]

Hi Nicky - Quick Question - when you add the ravioli to the pan, is it already cooked (boiled) or are you removing it from its packaging and putting it directly into the pan?
