Ingredients
  

For the ravioli dough:

  • 300 g of wheat flour
  • 150 ml of warm water
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • A pinch of salt

For the filling:

  • 220 g of firm tofu drained and pressed
  • 200 g of fresh spinach
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • A pinch of nutmeg

For the sage sauce:

  • 60 g of vegetable margarine
  • A handful of fresh sage leaves
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Ravioli dough preparation:

  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, warm water, olive oil, and salt until a smooth and elastic dough is formed. Knead for 5 to 8 minutes. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

Filling preparation:

  • Blanch the spinach in boiling water for 1 minute, drain and squeeze out excess water. Finely chop.
  • In a bowl, mash the tofu with a fork. Add the chopped spinach, minced garlic, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined.

Making the ravioli:

  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of 2 mm. Cut the dough into regular circles or squares.
  • Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each piece of dough. Lightly moisten the edges with water, place another piece of dough on top, and press to seal.

Sauce preparation:

  • Melt the vegetable margarine in a pan, add the sage leaves, season with salt and pepper, and let infuse over low heat.

Cooking the ravioli:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once the water is boiling and the sauce is ready, start cooking the ravioli for about 5 minutes, until they are tender. Keep a close eye on them.

Finishing touches:

  • Drain the ravioli and transfer them directly into the pan with the sauce to coat, or arrange them on plates and drizzle with the sauce, as preferred.
