      1 c  Shelled pumpkin seeds
    1/2 c  Onion
           -chopped
      1 ea Slice white bread
           -torn into small pieces

     14 oz Chicken broth
    1/2 c  Whipping cream
           Salt
 
  Mix cheese, pumpkin, 1/2 tsp salt and the nutmeg; reserve.
  
  Mix flour and 1/2 tsp salt in large bowl; make well in centre. Beat
  tomato paste, oil and eggs until well blended; pour into well. Stir
  with fork, gradually bringing flour mixture into centre, until dough
  forms a ball. If dough is too dry, mix in up to 2 Tbsp water. Knead
  on lightly floured cloth-covered surface, adding flour if dough is
  sticky, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.  Cover, let rest 5
  minutes.
  
  Divide dough into 4 equal parts.  Roll dough, one part at a time, into
  rectangle, about 12 x 10 inches(keep remaining dough covered). Drop
  pumpkin mixture by 2 level teaspoonfuls onto half of the rectangle
  about 1 1/2 inches apart in 2 rows of 4 mounds each.  Moisten edges
  of dough and dough between rows of pumpkin mixture with water. Fold
  other half of dough up over pumpkin mixture, pressing dough down and
  around mixture. Trim edges with pastry wheel or knife.  Cut between
  rows of filling to make ravioli; press edges with fork to seal.
  Repeat with remaining dough and pumpkin mixture.  Place ravioli on
  towel; let stand, turning once, until dry, about 30 minutes.
  
  Prepare Pumpkin Seed Sauce.  Heat until hot; keep warm. Cook ravioli
  in 4 quarts boiling salted water (2 tsp salt) until tender, 10 to 15
  minutes, drain carefully. Serve ravioli with sauce.
