A while ago I get this bright idea to make dinner. Not just dinner, but Butternut Squash Ravioli. It is one of my favorite dishes when I eat out, delectable, delicious, smooth and savory. Me, not being much of a cook but able to follow a recipe, began looking. There are many varieties of this particular dish. Doesn't seen too tough either. So, make pasta? riiiiiiiight. I think in the future this is something I will attempt but not this time. So the best substitute is wonton wrappers...ok. Not exactly pasta but this willl work.
After I shooed my husband out of the kitchen....twice, this was easier than I thought. Once the squash is cooked, the filling took no time at all to put together, and I took the liberty to season to taste. The assembly of the ravioli took the longest. I would think with a sheet of fresh pasta this might go a bit faster. Dropping them into the water and a quick boil- 4 minutes. The best part....Sage butter sauce. Simply butter, fresh sage leaves, salt and pepper (which I forgot...too excited). The sage leaves turn out nice and crispy and boy are they good. And who doesn't love melted butter?! Husband dutifully cleaned his plate and said Yum, next time more butter!
So, its not that I can't cook, I just don't. Maybe this will change. And I have another idea.........
