Less is better when it comes to the amount of filling for the ravioli. If ravioli are too full, the filling will seep out the sides. When pressing the top pasta sheet over the bottom one, be careful not to push any filling out of the allotted area. Getting the seal tight is vital, otherwise the ravioli will burst when cooked. You can never have too much water for cooking pasta, but too little could result in undercooked or clumpy noodles.
Rule of thumb is to use four times the amount of water to pasta.
