  • Plastic wrap

Method
 

  1. Prepare the lobster filling by chopping fresh lobster meat and mixing it with salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
  2. Make the ravioli dough by combining 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 3 large eggs in a mixing bowl. Knead until smooth and elastic, then wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out the dough into thin sheets and cut into squares or circles. Place a small spoonful of lobster filling in the center of each piece, moisten edges with water, fold, and seal.
  4. Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Cook the ravioli for 3-5 minutes until they float, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
  5. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add lemon juice and zest, then stir in heavy cream until smooth and slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Gently add the cooked ravioli to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.
