Homemade Easter Ravioli

Bart and I love to make homemade raviolis for Easter dinner.

First he starts out with 4 cups of flour. He makes a well for the eggs.

Next he adds 6 extra large eggs to the well.

He slowly starts to incorporate the eggs and the flour with a fork until a nice thick paste develops. Then he uses a pastry scraper to work the dough.

After he gets it to a dough stage, I start to knead the dough for about 8 minutes.

We then have a nice piece of dough!

I make a meat mixture for the filling. I use my meatball recipe. Some ground chuck, some egg, alot of fresh parsley, alot of garlic powder, a little salt and a little pepper and then some macaroni cheese. Oh and don't forget the pieces of torn up bread!

We then press the edges of the ravioli with our fingers.

You can not have homemade ravs without homemade sauce! I like mine on the sweeter side! I use Dei Fratelli Tomato Sauce and paste. I also use fresh onion and lots of garlic, a stick of butter, alot of sugar and some macaroni cheese. MMMMMM good!

Here are the ravs cooking in a huge pot of water and some olive oil.

And here is the end product ready to eat!

MANGIA MANGIA!!
