Ravioli Recipe

Combine Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.

Create a Well

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture.

Add Wet Ingredients

Crack the eggs into the well and add the olive oil.

Mix Ingredients

Using a fork, gradually mix the flour into the eggs and oil until a dough begins to form.

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Rest the Dough

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.

Choose your Cheese

Select a blend of cheeses (such as ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan) and prepare about 1-2 cups.

Mix Cheese and Herbs

In a bowl, combine the cheese blend with chopped fresh herbs (like basil and parsley), salt, and pepper to taste.

Roll Out the Dough

Divide the dough into quarters. Roll out one quarter at a time on a floured surface until thin.

Cut the Dough

Using a pasta cutter or knife, cut the rolled dough into squares or circles.

Fill the Ravioli

Place a small spoonful of the cheese filling in the center of each cut piece of dough.

Seal the Ravioli

Moisten the edges of the dough with water, fold over, and press to seal tightly. Ensure there are no air pockets.

Boil Water

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Cook the Ravioli

Carefully drop the ravioli into the boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes or until they float to the surface.

Drain and Serve

Use a slotted spoon to remove the ravioli from the pot and drain. Serve with your favorite sauce.
