Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: Indonesian
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 package fresh ravioli
- 200g shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp chili paste (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the shrimp by thoroughly cleaning, peeling, and deveining. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels to ensure proper seasoning and searing.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and chili paste. Whisk the ingredients together to create a marinade for the shrimp.
- Add the shrimp to the marinade and let it sit for 10 minutes at room temperature, allowing the flavors to penetrate the seafood.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully add the fresh ravioli and cook according to package instructions, typically 3-4 minutes until they float to the surface.
- While the ravioli are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are just cooked through.
- Drain the cooked ravioli using a slotted spoon, reserving a small amount of pasta water for potential sauce adjustment.
- Transfer the cooked ravioli to the skillet with the shrimp. Gently toss to combine and coat the pasta with the remaining marinade.
- Sprinkle chopped green onions over the dish. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Plate the ravioli and shrimp, garnishing with extra green onions. Serve immediately while hot.
Tips
- Fresh is Best: Use fresh ravioli for the most authentic flavor and texture. If you can't find it, opt for high-quality frozen ravioli instead.
- Marinate for Flavor: Allow the shrimp to marinate for at least 10 minutes. This step is crucial for infusing the shrimp with the rich flavors of the soy sauce and sesame oil.
- Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Keep an eye on the shrimp while cooking; they only need about 2-3 minutes per side. Overcooking can make them tough and rubbery.
- Reserve Pasta Water: Always save a bit of pasta water before draining. It can help adjust the consistency of your sauce if needed.
- Garnish Generously: Don't skimp on the green onions! They add a fresh crunch and vibrant color to your dish, enhancing both the presentation and flavor.
- Customize the Heat: If you love spice, feel free to increase the amount of chili paste or add fresh sliced chilies for an extra kick.
- Serve Immediately: For the best taste and texture, serve your ravioli and shrimp immediately after cooking. This ensures that everything is hot and fresh when it reaches the table.
