RAVIOLI WITH BROWN BUTTER-BASIL SAUCE RECIPE - (4.4/5)
Provided by á-23163
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Have water boiling for pasta when you start the sauce. In sauce pan, heat butter over medium high heat and cook until browned. Add olive oil and reduce heat. Toss ravioli in boiling water; toss walnuts into butter to brown lightly. Fresh pasta only takes a few minutes to cook so watch carefully. As you're draining the ravioli, throw the basil in the sauce just to wilt. Plate ravioli and pour sauce over. Pass parmesan separately. Other ideas: if you like more sauce on your pasta, try adding some chicken or vegetable broth to the sauce just long enough to heat -- a few tablespoons per serving. Try different herbs -- rosemary or sage are both excellent. Try different ravioli -- sweet potato or winter squash are good with sage.
Tips:
- Use fresh basil. Fresh basil has a more intense flavor than dried basil, and it will make your sauce more flavorful.
- Don't overcook the butter. Butter can burn easily, so be careful not to overcook it. Just melt it until it is smooth and fragrant.
- Add the basil at the end. Adding the basil at the end of the cooking process will help to preserve its flavor and color.
- Taste the sauce before serving. Adjust the seasonings to taste, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
- Serve the sauce immediately. Basil butter sauce is best served immediately, while it is still warm and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Basil butter sauce is a quick and easy way to add flavor to your favorite dishes. It is perfect for pasta, chicken, fish, and vegetables. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and versatile sauce that will impress your family and friends.
