Sweet potato ravioli with asiago cheese sauce image

This makes a lovely first course for an Autumn dinner party. I love using wonton wrappers to make ravioli, they're so easy to work with! This is my adaptation of a recipe I found in "Treasury of Cooking Healthy"

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 lb sweet potato
2 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
1/4 tablespoon minced fresh sage
24 wonton wrappers
water
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour, plus
2 teaspoons flour
1/2 cup skim milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° Bake sweet potatoes 40-45 minutes or until tender; cool completely and then peel them and mash the pulp Stir in yogurt, chives and sage.
  • Place wonton wrappers on counter Spoon 1 rounded tsp of potato mixture in the center of each wonton Spread filling kind of flat but leave a 1/2 inch border; brush edges lightly with water, fold them in half diagonally and press edges lightly to seal Place the filled wontons on a baking sheet and cover them loosely with plastic wrap.
  • Bring 1 1/2 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat to medium, then add a few ravioli at a time (do not overcrowd) Cook until tender, about 9 minutes then transfer to a platter with a slotted spoon.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat Stir in flour; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly Gradually stir in milk and chicken broth; cook and stir until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes, then stir in cheese, nutmeg, white pepper and cinnamon.
  • Spoon 3 tablespoons of sauce onto individual plates Place 3 ravioli onto each plate.
  • You can sprinkle additional chopped fresh sage over as a garnish.
