Ingredients

Scale

Ravioli

  • 1.1 pounds ravioli (with your favorite filling)

Sauce

  • 2 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried sage
  • 1 cup 20% fat cream (or heavy cream)
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 jar (1.7 oz / 50 g) black truffle slices

Garnish

  • Chili flakes, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preparing: Begin by setting a large pot of salted water over high heat and bring it to a boil to prepare for cooking the ravioli.
  2. Chopping: Slice the cremini mushrooms into even pieces and mince the garlic cloves finely to ensure they incorporate well into the sauce.
  3. Cooking Mushrooms: Heat a large skillet over high heat, then add the sliced mushrooms. Cook until they begin to release their moisture. Add the butter and continue cooking until the mushrooms turn golden brown, enhancing their flavor.
  4. Simmering Sauce: Stir in the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried sage. Cook this mixture for about 1 minute to release all the aromas. Pour in the cream, reduce the heat to low, then add grated Parmesan and black truffle slices. Let the sauce simmer gently for 1-2 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  5. Boiling Ravioli: While the sauce simmers, add the ravioli to the boiling salted water and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the ravioli thoroughly once cooked.
  6. Tossing and Serving: Gently toss the drained ravioli with the creamy truffle Alfredo sauce in the skillet, ensuring each piece is well coated. Serve immediately topped with chili flakes for a hint of heat. Enjoy your luxurious Truffle Alfredo Ravioli!

Notes

  • Choose ravioli with fillings that complement mushrooms and truffle, such as cheese or mushroom-based fillings.
  • 20% fat cream or heavy cream can be used depending on desired richness; heavy cream will make the sauce richer.
  • Adjust chili flakes amount to taste to control the spice level.
  • For a vegetarian version, ensure the ravioli filling and Parmesan cheese are free from animal rennet.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and smooth melting in the sauce.
  • Drain ravioli carefully to avoid water diluting the sauce.
