Ingredients

1 pinch kosher salt
16-18 oz butternut squash ravioli *Note 1
6 tbsp salted butter
½ tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp julienned fresh sage, about 4 leaves
½ cup grated parmesan
¼ cup reserved pasta sauce *Note 2
sea salt, to taste
freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Fill a large stock pot with approx. 4-5" of water. Add a pinch of kosher salt and bring to a gentle boil.
1 pinch kosher salt
Add the butternut squash ravioli and cook for 4 minutes (do not go over this time). Set aside 1/4 cup of pasta water. Gently remove the ravioli, drain and set aside. (*Note 3)
16-18 oz butternut squash ravioli, ¼ cup reserved pasta sauce
While the raviolis are cooking, pre-heat a medium size skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and cook for 5-6 minutes, until golden brown with dark specks. (*Note 4)
6 tbsp salted butter
Remove from the heat and add the sage and garlic. Let fry for about 30 seconds.
1 tbsp julienned fresh sage, about 4 leaves, ½ tsp minced garlic
Add the cooked ravioli, the reserved pasta water and half the parmesan cheese. Gently toss for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and the sauce coats the ravioli.
½ cup grated parmesan
Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, salt and black pepper and serve.
sea salt, to taste, freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Notes

Note 1- If using frozen ravioli, add an extra minute to the cook time.

Note 2- Use water or vegetable stock if you forgot to reserve some pasta water.

Note 3 - Do not over-boil the pasta as it will rip open and the filling will spill out.

Note 4- Watch the butter as it browns as it can burn quickly.
