Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create Zucchini Ravioli that will delight your family and friends:

1. Prepare Zucchini: Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin “noodles” using a mandoline or a sharp knife. Aim for thin strips, about 1/8 inch thick.
2. Make Filling: In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, chopped parsley, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
3. Assemble Ravioli: Take one zucchini slice, place a spoonful of the cheese mixture on one end, and fold the zucchini slice over the filling. Press down gently to seal. Repeat for the remaining filling and zucchini slices.
4. Cook Ravioli: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini ravioli in batches and sauté for about 2-3 minutes on each side until softened and slightly golden.
5. Serve: Gently transfer cooked ravioli to serving plates. Top with marinara sauce if desired, and finish with fresh herbs or shaved Parmesan cheese for added flavor.

These straightforward steps allow you to create a delightful dish that will impress anyone who shares it with you.
