How to make Fresh Ravioli

Making your own ravioli is quite simple once you get the hang of it. An inexpensive ravioli stamp will make things a lot faster so I do recommend adding it to your kitchen tool drawer if you decide to add this recipe into your meal plans.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions
 

Fresh Pasta

  • Mix the flour and salt together and make a well in the centre
  • Add the eggs and oil into the well
  • Mix until a shaggy dough forms
  • Gather the dough with your hands to form a ball
  • Knead for 10 minutes until smooth and soft
  • Wrap in plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 30 minutes

Ravioli Assembly

  • Roll your pasta dough into lasagna sheets
  • With a ravioli cutter, make marks along the lasagna sheet to use as a guide for your filling
  • Place 1 tablespoon of filling into each ravioli outline
  • Brush around the filling with water to moisten and then place a second sheet over the filling, pressing down to remove any air bubbles and to seal the edges
  • Use your ravioli cutter to cut out each ravioli piece
  • Remove the excess pasta dough and repeat the process with the remaining filling and pasta dough
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and in small batches, gently simmer the ravioli for 2 minutes or until they float then remove with a slotted spoon and serve with your favourite sauce

Notes

We show you how to make your pasta by hand, but you can use a mixer with a dough hook attachment to help with kneading and a pasta roller to help with rolling and cutting
