Instructions
    Preparing the Lobster Filling
  1. 1
    Cooking the LobsterIn a large pot of boiling water, cook the lobster tails until they turn opaque, about 8-10 minutes. Remove, let cool, then remove the meat from the shells and chop into small pieces.
    For a richer flavor, you can also sauté the lobster meat in butter before chopping.
  2. 2
    Making the FillingIn a bowl, combine the chopped lobster meat with ricotta cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.
    Adjust seasoning to taste and add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
    3. Assembling the Ravioli
  3. 3
    Preparing the Pasta DoughRoll out the fresh pasta dough into thin sheets. Place small spoonfuls of the lobster filling on one sheet, leaving space between each mound.
    Ensure the pasta sheets are well-floured to prevent sticking.
  4. 4
    Sealing the RavioliLobster Ravioli in a copper serving dishPlace another pasta sheet on top of the one with the filling. Gently press around each mound to seal, removing any air pockets. Cut into individual ravioli using a pastry wheel or a sharp knife.
    Make sure to press firmly to avoid any leaks during cooking.
