Ravioli is a type of pasta that is usually served in the form of small, square parcels filled with cheese, meat, vegetables or a combination of these ingredients. The pasta dough is made from flour, eggs, and water, and is rolled out thin, then cut into small squares. To make ravioli, a small amount of filling is placed on one of the pasta squares, then covered with another square and the edges are sealed to create a small pocket. The ravioli can then be boiled in water until it is cooked through and tender. Ravioli is a traditional Italian dish and is popular all over the world. It is often served with a sauce, such as tomato or cream sauce, and may be garnished with Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs. Ravioli can also be baked in the oven with a layer of cheese or sauce on top, to create a tasty casserole.
