Please help me create a sauce for my ravioli...

I've got quite a bit of leftover braised short ribs and I'd like to make ravioli stuffed with the shredded meat. I don't know if this helps, but I've got braising liquid (main ingredients: porter and homemade beef/veal stock) left over as well. How should I sauce the ravioli? Thanks!

    All the suggestions sound great, but you probably don't need more than to reduce the liquid a little, and add some butter to it..........and if you do add tomato paste, which is a brilliant idea, just brown it a little first so it's not too raw tasting.

      i'm liking bw's take on it. you could add a dollop of tomato paste and some lemon zest and come out with something magic.

        mushroom powder to cream....or simple brown butter with your favorite cheese shavings.

        add cream to the braising liquids and heavily reduce
