Lentil Ravioli - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    cooking spray
    1/4 cup fennel bulb, finely chopped
    2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
    1 teaspoon curry powder
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    2 2/3 cups water
    2/3 cup dried lentils
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
    48 wonton wrappers
Preparation
    Spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat until hot. Saute fennel and ginger 2-3 minutes; add spices and cook 1 minute longer.
    Add water and lentils to skillet; heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until the lentils are just tender, about 15 minutes.
    Simmer uncovered until excess liquid is goner, about 5 minutes.
    Stir in chopped cilantro. Season to taste with salt.
    Place 1 tablespoon of the lentil mixture in the center of a wonton wrapper; brush edges with water.
    Place a second wonton wrapper on top and press edges to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
    Heat 3 quarts of water to boiling; add 4-6 ravioli.
    Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until ravioli float to surface and are cooked al dente.
    Remove with a slotted spoon and repeat the cooking procedure with the remaining ravioli. Serve topped with your favorite sauce.
