Pumpkin Ravioli with Sage and Toasted Hazelnuts
- 1/2 cup peeled hazelnuts
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 pound fresh pumpkin ravioli
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 6 fresh sage leaves
- Large pinch grated nutmeg
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 amaretti cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread hazelnuts onto a baking tray.
- Toast hazelnuts in oven until light golden brown and fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely.
- Coarsely chop the cooled hazelnuts and set aside.
- In a 10 or 12-inch saute pan with high sides, bring 2 quarts of salted water to a boil.
- Add the vegetable oil to prevent the ravioli from sticking to one another.
- Add ravioli and cook for 4 minutes or until they float to the top.
- Using a spider strainer, carefully remove ravioli to a large platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
- In a small saute pan, melt the butter.
- When butter is sizzling and starts to brown, tear sage leaves into the pan and fry for about 20 seconds.
- Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg.
- Pour butter sauce over ravioli and sprinkle with toasted hazelnuts.
- Grate amaretti cookies over the dish and serve immediately.
