With Mari Moilanen’s recipe, ready-made ravioli become a good oven dish.
Mari Moilanen
Ravioli lasagna is a quick fix for lasagna indulgence. The food is so quick and easy that you have time to prepare it even on a weekday.
– This is absolutely insanely good. This time I dug whole, peeled tomatoes and tomato puree from the cupboards. From them, raw sausage and ready-made ravioli, a wonderful and succulent lasagna was created, Moilanen writes Something tasty in his blog.
Although this recipe is perfect for everyday use, Moilanen also recommends it for weekend cooking.
– This is so good that it’s worth tasting and giving it to your guests with a glass of punkula.
According to Moilanen, an uncomplicated and excellent basic chianti (e.g. Ruffino Chianti Organic, €12.98) or an excellent price-quality ratio Piedmontese Rossofuoco Barbera d’Asti Biologico (€14.98) is suitable as a wine with this dish.
For ravioli, you can choose your own favorites or what you can find in the store.
Ravioli lasagna
(for 4 people)
500 g spinach-ricotta-filled ravioli or another flavor
200 g grated cheese (e.g. mature cheddar)
Sauce:
500 g of spicy, raw Italian sausage
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
olive oil for frying
400 g whole canned tomatoes (e.g. Mutti)
1 tablespoon of tomato puree
1 dl meat broth
chopped parsley for decoration
1. Heat the oil in a pan, add the chopped onions and fry for a while. Remove the skin from the raw sausages and add them to the pan. Crush into crumbs with a spatula.
2. Add the whole tomatoes and tomato puree and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes. Taste the flavor. Sausage sauce does not need additional spices if the sausages are spicy. Please note that the meat broth added at the end adds salt to the meal, so you don’t necessarily need to add it to the sauce at all.
3. Assemble the lasagna by putting 1/3 of the sauce in the pan, a layer of ravioli and 1/3 of the grated cheese on top of it. Continue like this until the ingredients are used up. The top layer is a sauce with grated cheese sprinkled on top.
4. Add a deciliter of meat broth to the pan and bake the ravioli lasagna in a 200-degree oven for approx. 25 minutes. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top and serve with a fresh salad.
