Creating Lobster Ravioli involves a few steps, but it’s well worth the effort. Follow these instructions to make your own delicious pasta:

1. Make the Pasta Dough:

• In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together.
• Create a well in the center and crack the eggs into it.
• Add the olive oil. Using a fork, gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs until a rough dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

1. Prepare the Filling:

• In a medium bowl, combine the lobster meat, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped chives, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.

1. Roll Out the Dough:

• Divide the rested dough into four equal pieces. Keep the pieces you are not currently working with covered to prevent drying out.
• Using a rolling pin or pasta machine, roll the dough out into thin sheets, about 1/16 inch thick.

1. Form the Ravioli:

• Place small spoonfuls of the filling about 1 inch apart on one sheet of rolled-out dough.
• Moisten the edges of the dough around the filling with water.
• Carefully place another sheet of dough over the top, pressing down around each filling to seal and removing any air.
• Use a ravioli cutter or knife to cut them out, ensuring each piece is properly sealed.

1. Cook the Ravioli:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Gently add the ravioli, taking care not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for about 3-5 minutes or until they float to the top.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

1. Prepare the Sauce:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
• Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously.
• Once it begins to simmer, add lemon juice and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
• Let it cook for a few minutes until slightly thickened.

1. Combine:

• Reduce the heat to low and gently toss the cooked lobster ravioli in the sauce, coating them well.

1. Garnish:

• Transfer the Ravioli to serving plates.
• Optionally, garnish with fresh basil for added color and flavor.

These steps will guide you in making Lobster Ravioli that shines in flavor and presentation.
