For the pasta, mix the flour and semolina together on a clean work surface or in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and break in the eggs. With a fork or with your hands, gradually mix the flour with the eggs to form a soft dough. Knead the dough for 5 minutes, or until smooth. Shape the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film and leave to chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. I hate everything Waitrose stands for, but if you look into it they apparently make a really good one. By really good they mean more expensive than other brands. Ravioli is a famous italian dish that if god had his way would never have been put into a tin. According to Wikipedia “Ravioli singular: raviolo, pronounced [raviˈɔlo]) are a type of pasta comprising a filling enveloped in thin pasta dough. Usually served in broth or with a sauce”. Said sauce of tinned variety being a sweet tomato one. Repeat this process 3-4 more times, flouring the machine and changing the setting down each time. The pasta should be quite thin, but still easy to handle without tearing. Don't be tempted to skip settings or the dough may tear. Repeat with the other pieces of dough.

The most popular canned ravioli or tinned ravioli is pasta filled with beef, although Italian sausage, or even cheese have been used. The sauce is usually light slightly sweet tomato sauce, but again could be tomato with some meat in it, or again cheese thrown in for good measure.
