My pasta

Morning huns, hope everyone is bright and breezey today and full of fun. My pasta making (ravioli) didn't go quite to plan yesturday, infact a dog wouldn't just have turned its nose up at it, it would died laughing. I have never seen such a mess in all my life and I wish I have the equipment to have been able to post the evidence, but you have had a narrow escape peeps. My son said we could use them as missiles to keep the pigeons of my fruit bushes. I did say to him that they didn't look too good but might taste ok but when I tried them I said OMG they're disgusting he just replied "you ain't wrong there Sherlock". So we through them in the bin and opened two tins. Much better. We are having a bit of steak tonight as a treat cos there is only the two of us, wonder what I can manage to do to that if I try hard lol.

Have a great day everyone and no wobbles xx

Dont worry about it!Pasta takes practice!!You might be better just making spaghetti or tagliatelli to begin with. Well done for trying though-we've got a pasta maker and it sits in its box most of the time!!!
Have a good one xx

Hehe... tins - much better Sorry they didnt work out but youll be ravioli queen in no time im sure!! was it free ravioli lol (just because we seem to LOVE talking about ravioli lol) what did you stuff it with? Very brave for trying though...!!!

Hope you enjoy your steak.... yum yum... am thinking about having the cheese meatballs tonight...everybody else is going to a bbq... i cant quite trust myself with that yet lol!

My pasta making skills are about as good as my bread making - practically zero.......give me tins of ravioli any day, LOL...

What a shame! But the first time I made bread you could have built an extension with it! Now it's second nature. You wouldn't expect to be fluent in a foreign language after one lesson. So keep try and soon you'll be knocking out perfect ravioli!

(that sounds as if I'm telling you off, but I'm not. Funny how it doesn't come over like you mean it to when you write it down)

jamie oliver has a website with some good stuff on it, i made butternut squash ravioli in march ish and don't think the recipe is on there any more, but very good recipes and easy to follow. did mine by hand with a rolling pin. Only thing i would say is make sure you get every possible bit of air out of it.
