Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
- ½ cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1-2 tsp Salt or as per taste
- 1 ½ tbsp Olive Oil and 1 ½ tbsp more
- ½ tsp Ginger grated
- 2 cup Pasta Sauce
- 2 cup Spinach chopped
- 1/3 cup Cottage Cheese mashed
- 2 Onion chopped
- 1 tsp Pepper black, or to taste
- 2-3 Thyme
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- Combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and olive oil in a large bowl. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
Make the Filling
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan. Add grated ginger and saute for 30 seconds. Add chopped onions and saute until translucent. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Stir in mashed cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook for another 2 minutes.
Assemble the Ravioli
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough into a thin sheet. Use a ravioli cutter or a knife to cut out circles. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Brush the edges with water, fold over to form a half-moon shape, and crimp the edges with a fork.
- Repeat with the remaining dough.
Cook the Ravioli
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add a little olive oil to prevent sticking. Gently add the ravioli and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Prepare the Sauce
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan. Add the remaining chopped onions and saute until lightly browned. Add pasta sauce, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes.
Combine and Serve
- Add the cooked ravioli to the sauce and toss gently to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes. Serve hot.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Eggless Ravioli Perfection
- For a richer flavor, use a mix of fresh and dried herbs in the filling.
- If your dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time. If it's too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
- Don't overcook the ravioli; they should be tender but still have a slight bite.
- Feel free to experiment with other fillings, such as ricotta cheese, mushrooms, or butternut squash.
