Zucchini Ravioli
- 4 zucchini
- 1/4 teaspoon lemon rind
- 3/4 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese shredded
- 1 eggs
- 2 tablespoons basil
- nutmeg pinch
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- 2 tablespoons basil
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 28 ounces canned whole tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- cooking spray
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Line a tray platter with paper towels. Remove the ends from the zucchini, and use a vegetable peeler to create zucchini ribbons. Place the zucchini ribbons on the paper towel, and season with salt. Set aside for 15 minutes.
- Pat the zucchini ribbons dry with paper towel.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix together the lemon rind, ricotta, parmesan, egg, basil and nutmeg until well-combined.
- Spray 2 large baking dishes with cooking spray.
- To create the ravioli, lay three zucchini ribbons in a cross on a flat surface (2 horizontal, 1 vertical). Play a teaspoon or so of the ricotta filling in the middle of the cross. Wrap the zucchini ribbon ends around the filling to create a pillow. Transfer to one of the baking dishes with a spatula. Repeat until all the filling is used up.
- Insert the baking dish into the oven, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- While the ravioli are cooking, crush the garlic, and finely chop the oregano, and basil.
- Pour garlic, and olive oil into a large non-stick pan, and turn the pan on to medium heat. Cook the garlic until golden brown.
- Add the canned whole tomatoes, tomato paste, and sugar to the pan. Break the tomatoes up using the back of the spoon, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Stir through the chopped basil and oregano, and remove the pan from the heat.
- Top the cooked ravioli with spoonfuls of tomato sauce. Garnish with extra parmesan and basil, and enjoy!
