Make the Pasta Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tsp of salt. Make a well in the center and add 2 large eggs. Mix together using a fork until a dough starts to form, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Assemble the Ravioli
Roll out the pasta dough into thin sheets. Place small spoonfuls of the lobster filling onto one sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Place another sheet of pasta on top and press down around the filling to seal. Cut out individual ravioli using a cutter or knife. Repeat until all dough and filling is used.
