Once you get the hang of the fresh pasta, it is a natural progression to want to become pasta making crazy and why not give ravioli a try? My kids go NUTS and my friends go home full and happy.
I made a video to show you exactly how it is done, so I won't go through the steps of putting to gether and preparing here. Let me know if the video is helpful and I will do more.
