Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 cup finely chopped pork from cuban style braised pork shoulder
  • 1/2 cup reserved broth from cuban style braised pork shoulder
  • 1/2 ounce fresh grated parmesan cheese plus extra for garnish
  • 48 ounce round wonton wrappers
  • 2 1/2 cup store bought marinara sauce

Preparation

Baking Directions:

Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat.

Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add the garlic, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Add the pork and the broth and simmer for 2 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside to let cool slightly.

Working with a few wonton wrappers at a time, keeping the others covered with plastic wrap, moisten the edges with water using either your finger or a pastry brush.

Mound 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of a wonton and press another wrapper on top.

Press out the air and press the edges together tightly to seal.

Transfer to a flour-dusted sheet pan.

Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.

You should end up with 24 filled ravioli.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a simmer.

Heat the marinara sauce in a saucepan while you cook the ravioli.

Add the ravioli to the simmering water and cook just until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.

Drain well, and divide among 4 pasta bowls.

Spoon some of the tomato sauce on top of each portion and top with some of the cheese and basil.
