Take a pot, fill it with water, and put it over high heat to boil the water for the pasta. Don’t forget to salt it.

While the water boils, pour some olive oil in a pan over low to medium heat, and add the garlic and sausage to saute’. After a few minutes, add the broccoli rabe or cime di rapa.

Take one ladleful of cooking water and add it to the pan. Toss the ingredients, and after a few minutes repeat again with two more ladlefuls cooking water.

Take the pasta out of the water and add it to the pan with the other ingredients. Toss gently not to break the ravioli, and serve.

Tips

This recipe makes a very large portion, which can be split between two if eaten as a starter or a lighter meal.

If you can’t find speck ravioli, you can use ricotta or prosciutto ravioli.

And if you like spicy, you can add a teaspoon of hot chili peppers spread.
