Once you’ve had this fresh home-made pasta you’ll think twice before going back to the store bought stuff. The home-made fresh tomato sauce here goes well with it too.
Ingredients:
3 cups wholemeal flour
1 tsp salt
2 tablespoons of olive oil
4 medium sized eggs
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together. Knead for about 5 minutes. Wrap with plastic wrap and leave in fridge to rest for one hour. Divide dough into pieces for rolling (it is best to do a small amount at a time). Roll out as thin as you can! You can now cut the pasta into any shape you like – fettucine, ravioli, lasagne etc. If your dough was a bit moist you may want to leave the noodles to dry in the air for awhile before cooking. Can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of days before cooking if desired.
Cook in fast boiling water with some olive oil and salt. Will take about 7-8 minutes to cook. Take a piece out and bite to see if it is cooked.
Serves 4-6
