Macadamia nuts add Aussie flair to a sun-kissed red pesto, stirred through ravioli with a creamy burrata ball perched atop. We recommend cutting open the burrata at the table after serving for maximum showmanship!
Ingredient List
- 325g pack 25° South™ Australian Pumpkin & Ricotta Ravioli
- 20g (1 cup tightly packed) basil leaves, plus extra to garnish
- 70g macadamia nuts
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 120g semi sundried tomatoes
- 85g store-bought marinated roasted capsicum
- 60g grated Parmesan
- 125ml grapeseed oil or any neutral flavoured oil
- Sea salt, for seasoning
- 1 burrata, at room temperature
Preparation
- Cook the ravioli according to the pack instructions.
- Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the basil, macadamia nuts, garlic, sundried tomatoes, capsicum and Parmesan. Pulse until evenly chopped. With the motor running, drizzle in the oil in a slow and steady stream until fully incorporated. Season with the salt.
- Drain the cooked ravioli and return to the pan. Add half the pesto (see Tips) and gently stir to coat.
- Spoon the ravioli onto a large serving plate. Nestle the burrata on top and scatter with the extra basil leaves. Cut the burrata open at the table to serve.
Tips
- This recipe can easily be scaled to entertain. Simply buy 2 packs of ravioli and an extra burrata for 4 guests.
- This recipe makes extra pesto. The extra pesto can be kept in a clean jar in the fridge for up to 3 days or transferred to a zip lock bag and frozen for up to 3 months.
- Instead of making your own pesto, you could use a 190g jar of store-bought, sundried tomato pesto mixed with 70g finely chopped macadamia nuts if you’re running short on time.
