How To Make Mushroom Ravioli Cream Sauce

Step 1: Cook cheese ravioli

Following the packaging directions, cook the cheese ravioli.

Step 2: Prepare the mushroom ravioli sauce

Combine the mushrooms, onions, and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook for around 5-7 minutes, until the mushrooms are golden brown.

Gently stir in the flour and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the broth and cream. Add the parmesan cheese, pepper, and salt. Simmer for 7 minutes or until the mushroom ravioli cream sauce has thickened.

Best Sauce For Ravioli Tips

Don’t overcook the ravioli – This is a KEY step! Overcooking the ravioli will lead to a mushy dish that isn’t appealing. So, cook the cheese ravioli until it’s al dente.
Garnishes are fun – Not only do they taste great, but they make the mushroom ravioli cream sauce even fancier. Parmesan cheese, oregano, parsley, and some sauteed mushrooms all make fantastic garnishes.
Tortellini works too! Want to change up this mushroom ravioli recipe? No problem, swap the ravioli for tortellini instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DO I STORE LEFTOVER CHEESE RAVIOLI IN MUSHROOM SAUCE?

Cool the mushroom ravioli cream sauce and place it in a food container. Add a lid and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
NOTE: Keep in mind that when you reheat mushroom ravioli sauce, the texture will be slightly different. It will still taste great though!

WHAT KIND OF MUSHROOMS CAN I USE?

I prefer to make this mushroom ravioli recipe with baby portabella mushrooms. You could also use white bottom mushrooms or crimini mushrooms. This dish is very forgiving so there is some wiggle room for variety.

What To Serve With This Mushroom Cream Sauce For Ravioli?

Serve with a simple side salad or these simple roasted green beans. You have to have some bread to soak up that lovely sauce! Try these garlic cheddar biscuits or even just some crusty bread from the store.
