Step 1: Ravioli Making Contest

Here's what we did

Invited 4 friends so we had 6 people.

They had to decide what there filling and there sauce was going to be and bring that stuff with they.

I hand made the pasta but each person had to roll out there own dough.

Step 2: Filling the Pasta

Each person has 30 mins to cook there filling, make there sauce, roll there pasta.

Stuff them and plate them and serve to the other 5 people.
