Ingredients
  

For the Ravioli
  • 1 package Fresh Pumpkin Cheese Ravioli Use high-quality varieties; butternut squash or sweet potato ravioli can substitute.

  • 2 cloves Garlic (smashed) Enhances the flavor.
For Texture and Flavor
  • ½ cup Walnuts (toasted) Can substitute with pecans or omit for nut-free.
  • ¼ cup Apple Cider/White Wine Vegetable broth is a non-alcoholic alternative.
  • 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar Can be omitted if using ample acidity from wine.
  • ¼ teaspoon Freshly Grated Nutmeg Adds warm spice.
  • to taste Kosher Salt Essential for seasoning.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the fresh pumpkin cheese ravioli and cook for 3-4 minutes until they float and are tender. Drain using a slotted spoon.
  2. In a skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add smashed garlic, walnuts, and fresh sage leaves. Cook for 4-5 minutes until butter is golden brown and sage is crispy. Set crispy sage aside.
  3. Lower heat and add ¼ cup of apple cider and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. Sprinkle in freshly grated nutmeg, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer for 1 minute to meld flavors.
  4. Gently add the drained ravioli to the skillet with the sage butter sauce. Toss carefully to coat, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes on low.
  5. Platter the ravioli, drizzle remaining sage butter sauce over the top, and garnish with crispy sage leaves and shaved manchego cheese.
