- Toss with parmesan and the remaining fresh basil.
- Use a plain egg pasta dough rolled out to 1/4-inch or less.
- Make rather large ravioli to serve as appetizers, allowing 2 to a plate.
- Boil immediately for 4 to 5 minutes or allow to dry before using.
- Tomato-Basil cream sauce: In a saucepan heat tomato concasse with reconstituted sundried tomatoes.
- Cook until a thick liquid is formed.
- Process in food processor or blender and strain.
- Return to food processor and add oil, orange juice, basil and then cream until desired color is reached.
- Not too much cream, of course.
- Serve immediately with ravioli above.
