  8. Put the pea stuffing aside until needed later on. Unwrap the pasta dough, divide it into a couple of pieces and roll them out thinly one by one (I went as far as stand 7 on my pasta machine).

  9. With a round ravioli cutter or serving ring, cut out circles of dough. Put a teaspoon of pea filling onto a pasta circle. Cover the edges with a little egg wash. Then place another dough circle on top of the filling.

  10. Gently fold down the sides and work your way around the pea filling, pushing out all of the air. Thighten both pasta circles with a fork, a ravioli stamp or a cookie cutter like I did.

  11. Keep the finished ravioli under a damp kitchen towel and put the badges in the fridge or the pasta may get sticky. Make ravioli until all of the pea filling and pasta circles are used. Heat a generous amount of salted water. Cook the ravioli for 2 minute until al dente. Take them out with a slotted spoon. Place the ravioli onto warm plates. Sprinkle with some olive oil, salt and grated parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
