To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently add the ravioli, ensuring they do not stick together. Stir occasionally to prevent them from settling at the bottom.

Drain them carefully and toss immediately with your favorite sauce or topping. Avoid overcooking, as this can make the pasta mushy.
