Pasta Instructions:
1. Mix the dough by hand until it’s in a ball. Knead the dough for 10-12 minutes.
2. Let it rest at room temp for 30-45minutes.
3. The cut dough ball into 4 parts, flatten them out then roll it out using the kitchen aid pasta attachment.
4. Roll each setting at least twice, until you get to 6 then run it only once.
5. Cut the dough sheet in half when it gets too long

Ingredients for filling:
– 1lb full fat Ricotta cheese
– 1 whole egg
– 3oz Parmigiano-Reggiano
– lemon zest
– parsley
– garlic powder

Filling Instructions:
– Mix all ingredients for the filling.
– Put them in a piping bag

Putting it all together:
– Squeeze out filling onto a sheet of dough in 2 rows (if wide enough)
– Use a bit of water the draw the borders around the ravioli squares
– Put a 2nd sheet of dough over the one with the filling
– Use your fingers to make individual squares / and adhere the top dough to the bottom dough
– Use bench scraper/knife to cut into individual squares
– If there are air bubbles, poke a hole with something sharp and push out the air the try to seal the whole using your fingers to press on the dough

Pro Tip:
Save your scrap dough, ball it up, flatten it and run it through the rollers. You can cut it into spaghetti /fettuccini
