Vegan Chocolate Ravioli

I could not find a recipe for this anywhere - not a vegan one anyway ... So I made up my own and I must say it tasted fricken good!
Chocolate and raspberry = for the win lol
I made this in a class room and lots of people asked for the recipe, since I made it up I thought I ought to write it down for others who would like to make it..

First you need to start off making your own pasta dough ..

Chocolate vegan pasta dough

2 cups of plain flour
1 cup of soda water
1/2 cup cocoa
pinch of salt

Chocolate Raspberry Ganache

2 cups of dark chocolate buttons
1/2 cup So Good Soy milk
2 Tbls Nuttelex (dairy free margarine)
1 cup of crushed raspberries

Raspberry Sauce

1 pint of fresh raspberries (you can use frozen)
2 Tbls of cornflour
1 cup of cold water
1/4 cup of sugar
2 Tbls of orange juice


Method

In a large bowl add the plain flour, cocoa and salt.
Make a well in the middle and add the soda water.
Work into a nice dough - cover in plastic wrap and put in the fridge for only 10 minutes.

Once your dough is ready - cut into 4's and put through the pasta machine. I go until number 5 - nice long and thin.

Meanwhile in a double boiler, melt the chocolate and once that is melted take off the heat and stir through the nuttelex and soy milk and raspberries until you have a nice glossy ganache. (set aside)

In a medium pot combine raspberries, sugar and orange juice. Whisk in cornflour slurry and simmer for 5 minutes. Let cool and once completely cool, puree in blender.

Lay your chocolate lasagne sheet flat and add a tablespoon of ganache every couple of centermetres .. Lay another chocolate sheet on top and with a small round jar cut around your ravioli.

Put your ravioli into a large salted pot of boiling water and when it floats to the top (couple of minutes), take out and pat dry.

Ensemble together ..
