Shrimp Ravioli:

Place shrimp, bread, egg, and a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and paprika in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until smooth.
-
Place spoonfuls of filling in straight rows on fresh pasta sheets, about 2 inches apart. Brush a little egg wash in between the filling mounds. Place another pasta sheet over the top. Press down between the mounds to seal the sheets together. Cut between the mounds with a fluted cutter to separate the ravioli.

-
Drain; serve.

For the Semolina Pasta:
-
Mound the semolina on a work surface. Sprinkle with the salt. Make a well in the center.
-
Mix the eggs, water, and oil in a bowl. Pour this into the well, and gradually mix in the dry into the wet to create a dough. Continue kneading until the dough is smooth.
-
Let rest for about 30 minutes, covered.
-
Roll out to desired thickness.
