Growing up in Poland, pierogi was my favorite dish ever. My mom would make a huge batch of dough, potato filling and mold them by hands which sometimes would take hours! This recipe reminds me a little bit of it, except the fact that it’s made with sweet potatoes instead and vegan friendly! I actually have a whole blog post how to make Authentic Homemade Polish Pierogi here! You have to give it a try!

Ingredients
VEGAN PASTA DOUGH
1 cup semolina flour (or all-purpose)
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2-3/4 cup hot water
1 tsp sea salt
SWEET POTATO FILLING
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tbsp rice or bread crumbs
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp sea salt or more

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cups cherry tomatoes
2 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine such as Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio etc
2 tsp maple syrup or sweetener of choice
fresh herbs such as basil, parsley or thyme, chopped
Instructions
Cook cubed sweet potatoes in a medium pot of boiling water until fork tender, about 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, drain the water, then place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl to cool. Then mash with a fork.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour the water. Mix with your hands until it forms a solid ball. Add more water/flour if needed.
Transfer to a well floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes. Cover with a plastic wrap or kitchen towel and let it rest for about 10 minutes. If using a standing mixer with a dough hook there’s no need to knead with hands.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Preheat olive oil, add onion and garlic and cook on a medium high heat until well browned, stirring constantly. Stir in the mashes sweet potatoes, add rice crumbs or bread crumbs, nutritional yeast, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add salt.
To make the ravioli, you can use this ravioli maker following the instructions, knife or pizza cutter. Divide the dough in 4 equal parts. Roll the dough into thin sheets. Place about 1 tablespoon of filling one inch apart over half the pasta sheet (12 in total). Cover the filling with another sheet of pasta and press firmly around the filling to seal. Cut into individual ravioli with a knife or pizza cutter. Seal the edges.
Cook the ravioli, stirring occasionally, until the they float to the top. Between 3-5 minutes. Drain well.
To make the sauce. Add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil to the same pan you cooked the onion. Add cherry tomatoes, garlic, wine and honey. Bring to a simmer and cook until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ravioli and add fresh herbs.
