The earthy sweetness of beets and the nuttiness of chickpea flour come together in this colorful and tasty dish. It has a creamy herbed ricotta filling inside. This delicious take on traditional ravioli is great for a special occasion or a night in with the family.
Ingredients: 1 cup chickpea flour. 1 cup beet puree. 1 tablespoon olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. 1 cup ricotta cheese. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, and thyme. 1 clove garlic, minced. 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Put chickpea flour, beet puree, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix them together. Mix until you get a dough. Spread the dough out on a floured surface and roll it out into a thin sheet. Put the chopped herbs, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a different bowl and mix them together. On one half of the dough sheet, put small balls of the ricotta mixture, leaving space between each one. Cover the ricotta balls with the other half of the dough sheet and gently press down to seal. Cut squares of ravioli around each dollop of ricotta with a knife or pastry cutter. As the water boils, add salt to a large pot. Bring the water to a boil and cook the ravioli for two to three minutes, or until they float to the top. Grab a slotted spoon and take the ravioli out of the water. Serve them hot.
