Vegan Ravioli
Ingredients
Ravioli
2 cups all-purpose flour (plus 2 tablespoons more to knead)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
¾ cup cold water
Filling
1 cup frozen green peas
2 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, diced finely
a few fresh mint (or basil) leaves
2 tsp white miso paste
zest of ½ lemon + 15-30 ml / 1-2 tbsp lemon juice
salt and pepper, to taste
1-2 tbsp breadcrumbs or ground almonds, to thicken (if needed)
Instructions
Place 2 cups all-purpose flour + salt into a large bowl.
Gently pour in olive oil and cold water. Mix with a spoon until a ball of dough starts to
form, then dump out the dough onto a flour-covered surface.
Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, until it feels smooth. Add additional flour as
needed to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. The final dough will be sticky
but still easy enough to handle.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to chill
before rolling out. If making ravioli, you may want to cut the dough in half (or just
slightly off half so one piece is a bit bigger) and wrap separately before chilling.
Filling
Boil a small pot of water and fill a bowl with cold water. Once the water comes to boil,
plunge frozen petit pois (or green peas) into it and cook according to the instructions. Drain and plunge into the bowl with cold water to preserve the color.
Heat up the olive oil in a large pan. Gently fry leeks and garlic, until fragrant and soft.
Place cooked green peas, leek and garlic and all of the remaining filling
ingredients apart from the breadcrumbs in a small food processor. Process until smooth, season to taste.
If the mixture is too loose, add 1-2 tbsp breadcrumbs or ground almonds to thicken.
