Ingredients

  • 1 cup ap flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons fresh coriander finely chopped
  • salt
  • 4 cloves garlic on its skin
  • 2 cups pumpkin cubes, cooked
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese /paneer
  • 4 pieces sundried tomatoes chopped
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • coriander
  • cottage cheese
  • ravioli
  • paneer
  • pumpkin

Method

  • Place the flour, salt, egg, milk and finely chopped coriander on a lightly floured board and knead into a smooth dough. Cover and refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 C. Place the garlic on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes until soft.
  • Separately mash the pumpkin, and cottage cheese.
  • In a large bowl place the mashed pumpkin, cottage cheese, drained and chopped sundried tomatoes, mashed garlic, and mix well. Season with some salt and lots of freshly ground pepper.
  • Divide the dough into 4 portions and roll out as thinly as humanly possible (if you have a pasta machine you need to roll out to 3mm thickness), and leave the pasta on a dish towel until it dries out a bit.
  • Using a 3 inch crinkle edged round cutter stamp out 30 rounds of pasta, I used all the bits and bobs and rolled out again and cut up almost the entire dough.
  • Top 15 rounds with spoonfuls of the filling and brush the edges with water and place another round of pasta on top. Press firmly around the edges to seal.
  • Bring a large pan of water to boil, add salt, add the ravioli and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, the pasta when cooked will rise up to the surface of the water.
  • Drain well and toss with the drained oil from the sundried tomatoes. Sprinkle with pepper and a few sprigs of fresh coriander. Nice!
