This vegan ravioli recipe utilizes aquafaba, the liquid from canned chickpeas, as an egg replacer in the pasta dough. It's a simple yet delicious way to enjoy homemade ravioli without any animal products.
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup aquafaba liquid from canned chickpeas. Water, as needed. Your choice of vegan filling e.g., spinach and tofu, pumpkin and sage, mushroom and garlic.
Instructions: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the aquafaba. Mix until a dough forms, adding water as needed to achieve a smooth consistency. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, then cover it and let it rest for 30 minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it's very thin. Cut the dough into squares or circles, depending on your preference. Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each dough piece. Fold the dough over the filling to create ravioli shapes, pressing the edges to seal. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the ravioli into the boiling water and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove the cooked ravioli with a slotted spoon and serve hot with your favorite vegan sauce or topping.
