How To Make lobster ravioli

• 
  Step 1
  PASTA DOUGH For the dough: Sift the flours and a pinch of salt into a bowl.
• 
  Step 2
  Whisk together the eggs, oil, and 2 tablespoons of water in a separate bowl.
• 
  Step 3
  Pour the flour mixture onto a clean dry work surface and form a small well in the center. Pour half of the egg mixture into the well and, using a fork, begin to incorporate the flour into the egg mixture.
• 
  Step 4
  Once absorbed, incorporate the remaining egg mixture.
• 
  Step 5
  Knead by hand until all of the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes, flouring your work surface as needed to ensure the dough doesn't stick. Roll the dough into a ball.
• 
  Step 6
  Cover with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• 
  Step 7
  Lobster Ravioli Filling: Steam lobster. Allow to cool and remove shell. Chop roughly but on the small side.
• 
  Step 8
  Cook shallots in olive oil on medium-high heat.
• 
  Step 9
  Once the shallots have softened, add lobster meat, and parsley.

  Take the pan off the heat and mix in the ricotta and Parmesan.
• 
  Step 11

• 
  Step 12
  Assembling the Ravioli: Cut the pasta dough into 6 pieces. Flatten the pieces to prepare them for the pasta roller.
• 
  Step 13
  Run the flattened dough through the pasta roller to make sheets.
• 
  Step 14
  On a pasta sheet laid out on the counter, add about a tablespoon or so of filling a couple of inches apart. Wet with egg wash (1 egg and a Tbsp Water) the pasta in between the lobster filling creating the borders of the ravioli so they seal properly.
• 
  Step 15
  Top off with another pasta sheet. Around each mound of filling, press out on the wet area, making sure there are no air pockets in the filling.
• 
  Step 16
  Cut each ravioli out with a pizza roller or ravioli cutter. Ensure the ravioli are well-sealed again (or they will open up in the water when cooking).
• 
  Step 17
  Once all of the raviolis are made, set aside and put a pot of water on to boil.

• 
  Step 20
  Add salt and pepper to taste. Add basil last.
• 
  Step 21
  Cooking Ravioli In a large pot of boiling water, cook the ravioli for 7-8 minutes until they float up. (If you are lucky enough to have extra, lay them individually on a baking sheet and freeze before cooking them. When they are frozen, place them in a sealed plastic bag.)
•
