To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the ravioli, ensuring they do not stick together. Stir gently to prevent them from settling on the bottom. Cook for the time indicated on the package, usually around 4-6 minutes, or until the ravioli float to the surface and the pasta is tender. Drain them carefully, reserving a little pasta water. Toss immediately with your chosen sauce and serve warm.
