Creamy Spinach Ricotta Ravioli with Herb Sauce
Delight in a homemade twist on classic ravioli, featuring tender ricotta and vibrant spinach nestled in a delicate whole wheat pasta, then drizzled with a refreshing herb sauce bursting with garlic, basil, and a hint of lemon. This dish balances creamy, savory flavors with a bright herbal finish.
INGREDIENTS
180g Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (3/4 cup)
180g cooked Fresh Spinach (1 cup)
1 Egg White (33g)
50g Whole Wheat Pasta Dough
5g Fresh Basil (a small handful)
1 Garlic Clove
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the whole wheat pasta dough by mixing in the egg white to help bind the dough. Roll out the dough thinly and cut into squares or circles for forming the ravioli.
In a bowl, combine the part-skim ricotta cheese with the cooked spinach. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Spoon a small dollop of the ricotta-spinach mixture onto each piece of pasta dough. Fold the dough over and press the edges firmly to seal the ravioli.
For the herb sauce, blend the fresh basil, garlic clove, olive oil, and lemon juice until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil and cook the ravioli for 3-5 minutes, or until they float to the top, indicating they are done.
Drain the ravioli and drizzle generously with the herb sauce. Serve immediately for a warm and comforting meal.
