Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 ounce Italian salami, finely diced, or pulsed in a food processor
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 28-ounce can San Marzano plum tomatoes, drained, juices reserved
- 5 or 6 fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish
- Pinch of sugar
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds frozen spinach-and-cheese ravioli
- 1 ounce ricotta salata or parmesan cheese, grated
Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salami and garlic and cook, about 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes into the pan with your hands and cook until slightly dry, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved tomato juice, basil, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste. Increase the heat to high and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in 3/4 cup water and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let simmer while you cook the ravioli.
Add salt to the boiling water, then add the ravioli and cook as the label directs; drain. Divide the ravioli among shallow bowls, spoon the sauce on top and sprinkle with the cheese. Garnish with more basil.

Overall, this was a tasty and easy recipe. My store didn't have spinach ravioli, so I threw some fresh baby spinach into the tomato sauce while it simmered. One caveat: I'm not much of a salami person, so I failed to take into account how much salt the salami added to the sauce and added the salt as directed - it ended up REALLY REALLY salty! (The fact that I was using Genoa salami instead of Italian salami may have affected that - my store also didn't have Italian salami. I won't add any additional salt next time.
