Print Recipe

A simple recipe for homemade lobster ravioli served in a rich butter sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh pasta dough
  • 1 pound cooked lobster meat, chopped
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Roll out the pasta dough thinly. Cut into 3-inch squares.
  2. In a bowl, combine chopped lobster, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg yolk, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Place a teaspoon of the lobster filling in the center of half the pasta squares.
  4. Brush the edges of the pasta squares with water. Place another pasta square on top and press the edges to seal, removing any air pockets.
  5. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the ravioli for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the top.
  6. While the ravioli cook, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  7. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  8. Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Season with salt and pepper.
  9. Carefully add the cooked ravioli to the sauce. Toss gently to coat.
  10. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • You can make the ravioli ahead of time and freeze them on a baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag. Cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
  • For a richer sauce, you can add a tablespoon of lemon juice.
