I have had this before there with crawfish in the sauce. That was also excellent. I have also just made the lemon butter sauce with about a pound of crawfish and served that over pasta. So don’t let the time consuming preparation tear you away.

Pasta Instructions
- Place the flour in a mound on a clean, dry surface. Form a well or hole in the center of the flour. Break eggs into the center of the flour and add the oil, water, and salt.
- Use your hands to mix the ingredients together and slowly mix in the flour. Knead until well mixed. Cover with a clean towel, and let it rest for 30 minutes. Cut the dough into quarters. Begin to pass the dough through a pasta machine and continue to run it through until the dough is smooth. Run the dough through the thinnest setting to form 4 sheets of dough.
Shrimp filling
- Shrimp Filling Place olive oil and butter in a saute pan. Warm. Add shrimp, leeks, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4 minutes. Remove shrimp and set aside. In a bowl combine ricotta cheese, egg, cream, basil and thyme, and mix together. Combine cooled shrimp mixture and leek mixture.
Filling the Ravioli
- Filling the ravioli Brush each sheet of pasta with beaten egg. Place 1 tablespoon mounds of shrimp/leek mixture 3 inches apart along 1 side of pasta. Fold the pasta over to form pockets. Gently press an indentation into the dough between the mounds of shrimp/leek mixture. Cut the ravioli into pieces along these lines.
Lemon Butter Sauce
- Lemon Butter Sauce Melt butter in a saute pan. Add garlic, saffron, and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Add white wine and cook for 1 minute. Add lemon juice and cream. Cook until well mixed. Add cooked shrimp and cook for 1 minute. Serve by cooking ravioli for about 2 -3 minutes in a pot of boiling salted water. Remove from water and drain. Place ravioli in a bowl and cover with sauce.
