ONE SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS MENU IDEA USING STAPLES FROM FOU’S FROZEN FOOD SECTION:
BERTAGNI RAVIOLI
1 pack of Bertagni ravioli
2 garlic cloves
4 cups of mixed mushrooms (oyster, portobello, cremini, shitake), teared into pieces by hand
2 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon oregano
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan
Truffle oil to taste
Instructions:
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil, add the Bertagni ravioli and cook following the instruction on the package (Cooking time will depend on the type of raviolis). After cooking them, strain and reserve to serve with the sauce. (recipe underneath)
In a large skillet melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, about 5-6 minutes. Add wine, cook for 1 minute
Stir in heavy cream, thyme and oregano; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until slightly reduced and thickened, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in Parmesan. Serve immediately on top of the raviolis, garnished with a few drops of truffle oil!
