Sometimes you need some ready made ravioli. I bought some in France. Ravioli au Boeuf with Timut Pepper. But eating them cooked only in broth is boring. I needed some sauce to go with them.
A small bag of roasted pistachios was just over its expiration date. Since nuts can get rancid, I tried a couple of them and they were still good. Pistachios in sauces with pasta is a thing you can find on Sicily. I remembered that and the bag of ravioli sitting in my fridge. I came across the package of cooked ham in the fridge too.
The sauce was pretty basic. Just some shallots, ham, pistachios, wine and cream and some seasoning.
Recipe for 2:
250 g ready made ravioli with beef filling, 2 beef stock cubes
2 shallots, 3 slices of cooked ham, 1 tbsp butter, 40 g pistachios crushed, 3 tbsp creme fraiche, 50 ml wine
Salt, pepper, smoked, paprika, dried thyme and chili flakes, parsley for garnish
Cut the shallots into rings. Melt the butter in a pan and give the shallots 4 min. Cut up the ham and toss it in. After 3 more min add the pistachios and the wine. Let it cook down a little. Season and finish with creme fraiche.
The ravioli will only need a few minutes in the broth. Add them with a little broth to the pan. Stir and garnish with parsley.
