Homemade Jumbo Ravioli

Step 1: Pasta Dough: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of the flour and remaining ingredients. With mixer at medium speed, beat for 2 minutes, occasionally scraping bowl. With wooden spoon, stir in the rest of the flour to make a soft dough; adding a little more flour, if necessary.

Step 2: Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5-10 minutes. Cover dough and let rest 30 minutes. Make meat filling or filling of your choice.

Step 3: Meat Filling: In a 10-inch skillet over medium high heat, cook burger, onion, and garlic until hamburger is thoroughly browned. Remove from heat and drain of juices. Stir in egg, Parmesan cheese, and salt. Mix until well blended; set aside. Make the Ravioli.

Step 4: Jumbo Ravioli: Cut the pasta dough into 4 pieces.

Step 5: On a well-floured surface, with a floured rolling pin, roll one piece of the pasta dough into a 15x6 inch rectangle. With a pizza cutter, cut the rectangle crosswise into 6x3 inch pieces.

Step 6: Drop rounded Tablespoonful’s of filling on the 3-inch side of each piece of pasta to within ¼ inch of edges. Beat one whole egg in a small dish. Dip your finger in the egg wash and coat the outside edges of the ravioli, or use a pastry brush.

Step 7: Fold dough over meat filling, bringing ends together. Press all edges to seal. With a fork dipped in flour, again, firmly press down on edges to permanently seal pasta.

Step 8: Place ravioli in a single layer on clean towel. Repeat with remaining pasta and meat filling. Let dry 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make marinara sauce or your favorite pasta sauce.
