Sandra Lee - White Bean Ravioli with Brown Butter and Caper Sauce

Originally aired as part of the "Restaurant Remakes - Bobby & Mario" episode on the Food Network, June 23rd, 2007.

Ingredients:

For the ravioli:
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans
1 egg
3 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoons Italian seasoning (recommended: McCormick)
24 wonton wrappers (recommended: Dynasty)
For the sauce:
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
2 tablespoons capers
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (recommended: McCormick)
1 tablespoon freshly minced parsley leaves
Salt
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving
For the ravioli:

Directions:

In a blender, puree together the beans, egg, vinaigrette, cheese, and Italian seasoning; set aside.

Working in batches, so the wrappers don't dry out, lay out 6 to 8 wonton wrappers. Place 1/2 tablespoon of bean mixture in the center of each. Moisten 2 connecting edges of the wonton wrapper with your finger dipped in water.

Fold wrapper in half to form a triangle. Press edges together to seal. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers and filling.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a low boil.

For the sauce:
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until it begins to brown and have a nutty aroma. Turn off heat and stir in capers and Italian seasoning.

Working in batches, cook ravioli in boiling salted water until just tender, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer ravioli to hot butter sauce. Add parsley to pan. Use a spoon to coat ravioli with sauce. Transfer to plates and add salt.

Serve immediately garnished with grated Parmesan.

1:12 "We're going to do it the semi-homemade way." Cheap, lazy, and gross?

[zeldafreak701]

Okay....if this is really semi homemade, why didn't she just buy the ravioli? Really? Why?!

[beanbagchair]

WHY DOES SHE ALWAYS BUY BOTTLED BALSAMIC OIL DRESSING IT SERIOUSLY TAKES 5 SECONDS TO MAKE

[jyhluk]

this is disrespectful

[smy1989]

@kimmois1 LOL!!! i completely agree with you!

[ShaunWhiteismyGinger]

She didn't seal the edges with water. She used vodka...

[ShaunWhiteismyGinger]

They cut it off because she threw up.
