Instructions: In a small skillet melt the butter over moderate heat and cook the shallots, stirring, until soft. Transfer to a bowl and let cool. Stir in the salmon, cream cheese, dill, chives, lemon juice, salt and pepper, mixing well to combine and chill, covered, for 1 hour.

Prepare the won ton ravioli: Place 1 won ton wrapper on a lightly floured surface, mound 1 tablespoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper, and brush the edges with water. Put a second wrapper over the first, pressing down around the filling to force out the air, seal the edges well, and trim the excess dough around the filling with a decorative cutter or sharp knife. Make won ton ravioli with the remaining wrappers and filling in the same manner, transferring them as they are formed to a dry kitchen towel, and turn them occasionally to let them dry slightly.

Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil and in it cook the ravioli in batches for 2 minutes, or until they rise to the surface and are tender. (Do no let the water boil vigorously once the ravioli have been added.) Transfer the ravioli as they are cooked with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and keep them warm.

Serve the warm ravioli drizzled with the melted butter and topped with sour cream and minced fresh dill.
