My pasta machine has numbers 1 to 7, 7 being the wider setting (hence thicker dough). After I roll out the dough with the rolling pin, I put it through the pasta machine 3 times at different thicknesses, first at 6, 4 and then lastly at 2. Each time you roll the dough through the pasta machine ensure your working bench is well floured as well as the pasta sheet so that it doesn’t stick. The pasta sheet should be about 14cm in width.
All the excess dough cut out may be repressed to form pasta sheets again. Repeat the assembly process until the all the dough and filling is finished. Approximately 40 ravioli may form.
Bring 6L of water to a boil and add a stock cube of your choice. Typically we tend to boil chicken to make chicken broth and then cook the ravioli in it. You may choose whichever method you prefer. If you cook the ravioli fresh then it needs 4-5min of cooking, whereas from frozen (without thawing) it requires 8-10. Serve warm with some extra halloumi grated on top. After boiling, the ravioli expand quite a bit and i find one batch is enough for 4 adults to eat.
