Eggplant Ravioli In Tomato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Peel eggplant in 1-inch stripes, leaving some skin on. Quarter lengthwise and slice into 1-inch pieces. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss eggplant, tomatoes, and shallot with oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast, stirring once, until tomatoes burst and eggplant is caramelized and tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook ravioli in a pot of salted water according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain. Return ravioli to pot along with eggplant mixture, capers, and enough reserved pasta water to create a silky sauce. Toss with cheese and basil. Serve, topped with more cheese and basil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pour enough oil to coat the center of a baking sheet. Season the scored eggplant with salt and pepper, then arrange the cut sides down in the EVOO. Drizzle the garlic with EVOO and season with salt and pepper. Wrap in a foil pouch and roast along with the eggplant until very tender, 40 minutes. Cool to handle.
• Heat 2 tablespoons EVOO, a couple of turns of the pan, in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the thyme, crushed red pepper flakes, onions and salt and pepper and stir to soften, 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir 1 minute more. Then add the stock, wine, and tomatoes. Scrape the eggplant away from skin and add the flesh, along with the garlic, squishing the cloves from the skins. Add the basil. Puree the soup with an immersion blender. Simmer to thicken. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal. Reheat the soup over medium heat, and top with the basil and cheese.

Steps:

• In a small soup pot, melt the butter and the olive oil over medium heat. Turn the pan and coat its surface. Add the eggplant and garlic and season with salt and pepper and cook until softened about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Add the raviolini and cook until tender 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the basil.
• Serve the soup in bowls, topped with cheese.

Steps:

• Heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a medium (10 to 11-inch) pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the eggplant and saute for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Add a little more olive oil if the eggplant is sticking.
• Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pot, add the onions and fennel, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for one minute, stirring often. Add the chicken stock, crushed tomatoes, fennel seeds, oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon salt, and 2 teaspoons black pepper. Pour the can of whole tomatoes, including the liquid, into a food processor and pulse until the tomatoes are coarsely chopped. Add the tomatoes and the liquid to the pot. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste for seasonings. Serve hot in large bowls sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• In large, deep skillet with a tight-fitting lid, or a Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Stir in the cherry tomatoes and garlic and onion; season with salt and pepper.
• Cover the pan and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the tomatoes burst and a thick sauce forms, 7-8 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock and water and bring to a boil.
• Cook for a couple of minutes, then add the ravioli and cook until tender, 3-4 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the basil and Italian seasoning to wilt.
• Serve the soup and top with the cheese.
• Serve with crusty bread.
