Pumpkin Ravioli with Sage Brown Butter Sauce

Simple Pumpkin Ravioli tossed in Sage Brown Butter Sauce. The silky smooth texture and the combined flavors will create a lasting memory.

I don’t typically opt for ravioli when I’m craving a hearty and comforting meal, especially at this time of year. Our hearts are aching for warm and comforting soups and pasta dishes. However, today has been quite a day for me.

Not sure I’ve mentioned yet that I have a full-time corporate job Monday through Friday. This comes with its own set of stresses, especially as the end of this quarter is fast approaching. I am lucky enough to have remote work, so I get to take an hour’s lunch break every day to prepare a meal. Which is a significant benefit. There were a lot of meetings yesterday, so I knew I would need something that could be ready in minutes, tasty, and somewhat healthy I could eat for lunch.

I had been to the store the weekend prior and whilst there, I grabbed a pack of pumpkin ravioli, some sage, parmesan cheese, and other replenishment for my pantry. I’ve had pumpkin ravioli with brown butter sauce at a restaurant before and what made me enjoy it was the filling was very flavourful and delicious. Ravioli is all about the filling. Because sauces only serve as complementary ingredients, they must be made well.

Making your own pumpkin-filled ravioli at home is relatively easy. You just need a knife, a brush, and water. It is a handy idea to have a ravioli maker around, but it is not necessary to have one.

Things You’ll Need To Make Sage Brown Butter Sauce

• Butter – I went for unsalted butter so you can adjust your salt levels yourself.
• Shallots or Garlic – fresh sliced garlic is perfect for this recipe, I opted for shallots instead because I wanted a sweet caramelized bite to the dish.
• Fresh Sage Leaves – a few sprigs of sage leaves are all you need for this recipe.
• White Wine – apple cider vinegar is a great substitute here.
• Salt and Pepper – to taste.
• Parmesan Cheese – as a flavorful and complementary garnish.
