Ingredients

• 16 oz Cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 14 oz Crushed tomatoes (canned)
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 tsp Dried basil
• 1 tsp Dried oregano
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Fresh basil leaves, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ravioli and cook according to the package instructions (typically 3–5 minutes for fresh ravioli or 6–8 minutes for frozen). Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 3

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine. Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream. Mix until the sauce is uniform in color and smooth.

Step 5

Add the grated Parmesan cheese, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer for an additional 3–5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 6

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or broth to reach your desired consistency.

Step 7

Gently toss the cooked ravioli in the creamy tomato sauce, ensuring they are well-coated.

Step 8

Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped basil leaves if desired. Enjoy your Ravioli with Creamy Tomato Sauce!
