Ravioli with Mushroom Sauce is ideal for the autumn season, in which mushrooms are the masters; they are ideal, accompanied by a good glass of red wine like a nice Barbaresco.

Despite the long preparation, this recipe is perfect for those who do not want to stay at the stove until a few minutes before lunch or dinner. Once placed on the baking tray, the ravioli with mushroom sauce must be cooked for a few more minutes in the oven. They can therefore be prepared in advance and baked at the moment.
