Baked Ravioli
Serves 4.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme or oregano
1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 pounds store-bought ravioli
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add
onion and garlic, and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally,
until softened, about 5 minutes. Add thyme and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce
heat, and simmer, breaking up tomatoes with spoon, until sauce is thickened and
reduced to about 5 1/2 cups, 20 to 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook ravioli in a large pot of boiling salted water just until they
float to the top (pasta will continue to cook in oven). Drain pasta; return to
pot.
Toss sauce with pasta. Pour pasta into a large gratin dish or 9 x 13-inch baking
dish, and sprinkle with cheeses. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool
slightly before serving.
