Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the ravioli are al dente and float to the top, about 3-5 minutes. Drain well.
  2. Heat a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinara sauce and bring to a low simmer. Gently stir in the drained ravioli until evenly coated.
  3. Top with grated Parmesan cheese. Divide between bowls and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

For best results, do not overcook the ravioli; they should be tender but still hold their shape.

Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for superior flavor and meltability.

If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of pasta cooking water to thin it slightly.
